🍽️ It’s time NYC fully supports our older adults! Today Council Member Crystal Hudson, @LiveOnNY, UNHNY, @EncoreNYC, @GoddardRiversid, & Citymeals on Wheels rallied at City Hall to call for increased funding for meals at older adult centers. #50PlusDeserveBetter
New York City’s budget should reflect New York City’s values. UNH stands with the Council in calling for full investment in services for children and youth, including the restoration of Mayor Eric Adams proposed $170 million to 3K.
Settlement houses have played a key role in making New York the City of immigrants it is today. When we support newcomers, the entire City benefits. Thanks to Rich Baum of Educational Alliance for highlighting symbiosis in New York Daily News today. nydailynews.com/2024/06/23/asy…
NYC’s early childhood education system is complicated. The needs of children and families are not. Parents, providers, advocates, and New York City Council have worked hard to hold the City to its promise of universal care. Funding for ECE in today’s budget is the result of their efforts.
Settlement houses have been anchors in their New York communities for more than a century thanks to the adaptability of the model. As we envision our City's future, it must be one that includes institutions like University Settlement. Proud of our members today and always!
For the last few years, children and youth attending NYC’s popular free summer camps have been required to attend summer school as well. Michael Elsen-Rooney explores the consequences of this model in his latest for Chalkbeat New York chalkbeat.org/newyork/2024/0…
UNH is changing what it means to age by promoting intergenerational programs where youth and older adults come together to learn, create, and be civically active with our settlement house partners, BronxWorks Queens Community House & Sunnyside Community Services Learn more at unhny.org/intergen #NYCIntergen
UNH urges NY State Board of Elections to revise its draft of Ballot Proposal 1, the Equal Rights Amendment - which as currently written may be confusing or misleading. There is time to fix this before the Nov 5 election. Read our letter to the BOE here: tinyurl.com/4855etdh
If you applied for NYC’s Free 3-K for All, please take a moment to fill out this survey from New Yorkers United for Child Care in my bio! The Mayor’s office claimed every family who applied for 3-K received an offer but families have shared otherwise. Your feedback can ensure early education for all
