Samaritan Daytop Village

Deeply grateful to JKW Live Well Foundation for the $25K grant to support students at the Daytop Preparatory School in Huntington Station. The funds will expand music & technology programming to foster creativity, build new skills, & stay engaged: www.samaritanvillage.org/news/livewell-grant-dps/

We joined 300 other human services workers at the New York State Capitol in Albany for a #JustPay Human Services Advocacy Day. At the rally & meetings with legislators, we demanded the State fund a 2.7% COLA increase on all human services contracts & pass Wage Board legislation.

Our Outpatient, Recovery, & Residential Services staff attended the #NewYork Association of #DrugTreatmentCourt Professionals (NYATCP) in Saratoga Springs.

For nearly 20 years, we've supported the NYATCP's efforts to provide treatment as a solution, not jails, to address the needs of New Yorkers.

An affordable NY must include #JustPay for human services workers. Despite this, leaders continue to pay our workforce poverty wages.

Email @mayor.nyc.gov and State Legislators telling them to put their money where their heart is and put #JustPay in their budgets: bit.ly/JustPay-Valentines-Action

From childcare to housing, @mayor.nyc.gov’s priorities need nonprofits to succeed.

We stand ready to deliver. But we also need real support from City Hall to do so.
