Policy and Advocacy
We co-create and support citywide and statewide coalitions and campaigns, leveraging research and civic engagement resources to influence the budget, legislative, and policy decisions made at City Hall, the State Capitol, and in Washington D.C.
Civic Engagement
We mobilize youth and adult New Yorkers through leadership development programs, advocacy trainings and public information campaigns and work to raise the visibility of solutions to systemic inequities, centering the voices of those most impacted.
