Save NYCBenefits

To our community members:

An important source of our funding may be lost without your help. For over three years, we have taken part in the City-funded NYCBenefits program alongside 37 other nonprofits. NYCBenefits supports our public benefits enrollment work, which helps our New York neighbors meet their most basic needs. We offer application assistance for SNAP, Cash Assistance, Medicaid, housing programs, and more. If NYCBenefits funding goes away, tens of thousands of New Yorkers will lose trusted, effective support. Help us save NYCBenefits!

Sign the petition below to tell the Mayor and City Council Members to save the NYCBenefits program by funding it for the coming fiscal year and baselining it in the City budget to ensure its future. We have only a few days left to get our message across. We are depending on you. Please sign the petition today. 702 people have signed—help us reach 1,000!
