We are a diverse group of organizations working to improve long-term outcomes for children and families from households experiencing economic hardship. Allowing millions of New Yorkers to experience poverty, among them hundreds of thousands of children (with children of color disproportionately represented), is a policy choice. 

We are dedicated to advancing and strengthening public policies that support children and families and reduce child poverty and inequity across New York State.
