Right now, 300+ nonprofit human services workers from University Settlement and our peer organizations are in Albany for the Human Services State Advocacy Day to demand a 7.8% investment on ALL human services contracts. The cost of living keeps climbing, and State contracts must keep up. A 7.8% investment is what human services nonprofits need to help cover program costs and higher wages for workers who strengthen our communities every day. Big thanks to NYS Senator Rachel May and other elected officials for speaking up in support! Rising costs have pushed nonprofits to the brink. We can’t wait for 7.8! #FundHumanServices #JustPay #NYCisUS
