The Consortium is in Albany today to show our support for the Human Services Council of New York's #JustPay campaign! Human services workers are the backbone of this state and in times of increased uncertainty, we need a strong nonprofit sector. We stand with all of our members and colleagues as they fight for a 7.8% investment on all State human services contracts, the passage of S1580/A2590 to guarantee that all nonprofit human services programs are eligible for State cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) funding, and S3953/A5589 (Wage Board legislation) to address the pay gap between nonprofit and government human services workers.

From our recent newsletter: A newly released survey from The Community Service Society?shows that the majority of people across the board support rent control measures, with 81% of respondents supporting rent stabilization and 78% supporting "good cause" eviction. It was found that 75% of Republican respondents answered with "definitely support" or "probably support", even though the Republican Party "remains fiercely opposed to measures like rent stabilization."?Sam Stein, a housing policy analyst with the Community Service Society, stated "Half the state are renters, and I think renters are certainly in touch with the fact that they have limited rights and are feeling the squeeze."

Nonprofits are being squeezed from all sides. The City continues to delay payments on contracts for critical services, while potential federal funding cuts loom. A recent report found that over 90% of City human services contracts were registered late, leaving organizations struggling to stay afloat while delivering essential services.

Nonprofit human services workers dedicate their lives to caring for our communities, but the Governor didn’t show us love in her recent budget proposal. ?? Instead of including a full 7.8% investment in human services, she proposed a 2.1% “inflation adjustment”—not nearly enough to fund programs or pay human services workers livable wages. From February 10 -14, email your State legislators and tell them that we are tired of this one-sided relationship. We know our worth, and we need them to fight for us in the next budget! ??
