    • More than 115 Organizations Call for Changes to New York State’s School Funding Formula

    Every child in New York State has the right to a sound, basic education—and providing such an education requires adequate and equitable funding. More than 115 organizations are calling on Governor Hochul and the New York State Legislature to revamp New York’s outdated school funding formula to ensure schools have the resources necessary to provide a high-quality education to all students, with particular attention to those who have the greatest needs.

    • Brechas en trabajadores sociales para estudiantes que viven en refugios

    Este informe de mayo de 2018 documenta la cantidad de escuelas de la ciudad de Nueva York con altas concentraciones de estudiantes que viven en refugios que no cuentan con un trabajador social enfocado en esta población.
