United Neighborhood Houses
@unhny.bsky.social
United Neighborhood Houses is a policy and social change organization representing neighborhood #SettlementHouses reaching 800K New Yorkers.
Learning to Work changes lives, but without sustained investment programs could close. UNH stands with our colleagues who are headed to City Hall today to call on @mayor.nyc.gov to ask for baselined funding for LTW. We know you care, please #SaveLTW #WeAreLTW
Federal cuts is threatening food access for millions of New Yorkers. The State budget can change that. UNH is proud to stand with @votejgr.bsky.social, Senator Gustavo Rivera, and 110+ orgs in demanding #SNAP4ALL in this year’s state budget. 🌽 empirereportnewyork.com/state-budget...

The War Room became the Play Room as UNH joined @ny4childcare.bsky.social in Albany! Governor Hochul made a historic investment in child care, but the work is not over. We must ensure Pre-K and 3-K are available statewide and we support child care workers who make this possible. Let’s get it done!
Immigrant communities in our city are under attack. UNH is raising our voice to say: You belong here, no matter where you’re from. Join us for Spice & Solidarity, an evening supporting our advocacy for New Yorkers, with an interactive cooking demo from the League of Kitchens 🎟️ tinyurl.com/3xpp9k8x
Thanks for sharing our “You Belong Here” campaign, John!
John F@easttnliberal.bsky.social · 7mo agoMy youngest is fundraising for @unhny.bsky.social. They fight for immigrant families in NYC. UNH advocates for free English classes, access to childcare, and the right for everyone to belong. Since they don’t take federal grants, no one can shut them up.

@unhny.bsky.social represents settlement houses across our city reaching over 800K New Yorkers so I'm proud to have their support on COPA! They recognize that housing insecurity is the most pressing issue facing most New Yorkers and that COPA can offer a way to protect affordable housing.
The Governor is missing a critical opportunity to support the children and families at settlement houses across our state.
The UNH team LOVES #SNAP4ALL! As one of our legislative priorities for FY27, we’re working diligently to pass the bill and make sure no New Yorker goes hungry. 👉https://www.nyequityadvocates.org/snapforallny
