@AsiaLeeds Dr. Leeds! You were my ADW teacher at Spelman 🙌🏾

It’s not too late to take action for NYC’s youth in care. #FairFutures offers youth in care mentorship and guidance as they transition to adulthood. @JimmyVanBramer, can we count on you to baseline $20M in the budget for Fair Futures?

[Fair Futures @FairFuturesNY]

Navigating the transition to adulthood is difficult, and it helps to have someone in your corner. #FairFutures provides a lifeline of support for over 3,000 youth in care. @Salamancajr80, can we rely on you to baseline $20M in the budget to save Fair Futures?

[FYSA @FYSA_NYS]

As we begin to recover and reopen from COVID, FYSA will present findings from a recent survey of older foster youth across the state

👏🏾We are *VERY* excited about this. Can't wait to learn from the expertise that these young people have to share about #fostercare #agingout #chafee #COVID19 and their vision for the future in NY.

See you there!

[FYSA @FYSA_NYS]

Call on @NYCMayor and @NYCCouncil to baseline $20M for #FairFutures. It takes under a minute to send an email or a tweet demanding funding for youth in care. Every submission counts!

[FYSA @FYSA_NYS]

Despite his promises, @NYCMayor is poised to cut @FairFuturesNY, an essential mentorship program for youth in care. Send him (and @NYCCouncil) a letter or tweet urging them to baseline $20M in the City budget for Fair Futures at https://t.co/Pi60Ucc5gh

[FYSA @FYSA_NYS]

Youth in care don’t need any more broken promises—we need action. Amplify our youth’s demands @NYCMayor to baseline $20 million in the budget for #FairFutures.

Send the mayor and City Council a letter today at https://t.co/Pi60Ucc5gh

Thread. You're going to hear a lot about how cops need more resources because "crime is surging" in the next few months. It's propaganda, and here's how you can respond:

@fosterhood Now that's an idea! @YMcBrideCANYC @FYSA_NYS

S.6706-B (@JabariBrisport)/ A.7582-A(@AndrewHevesi) is crucial for working parents in NYC and the whole State who are being denied access to child care subsidies while struggling to make ends meet. @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie Please pass this bill today to #transformNYchildcare

[Jasmine Hooper @JasmineNHoop]

Please pass S.6706-B @JabariBrisport / A.7582-A @AndrewHevesi TODAY! A family of 3 earning $50,000 a year with one child in child care pays $15,000 a year now. With this bill, the family's cost would drop to $2,800 a year. This is a no-brainer. @CarlHeastie @AndreaSCousins

[Jasmine Hooper @JasmineNHoop]

This bill could allow 25,000 more NY families access to quality affordable child care THIS year! @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie NY has the federal funds to do it - let’s pass this bill, transform lives, and #transformNYchildcare! @EmpireStateCCC

I didn’t appreciate until I was grown how much deliberate effort my parents had put into teaching me things they knew I wouldn’t learn in a white dominated public school system.

@SpainBey_ umm excuse me! ☝🏾
