"Investing in the human sector is more critical than ever as our residents weather the storm created by #COVID19."
THANK YOU to @NYCComptroller for standing with the human services sector in calling to protect the City's indirect investment in the sector. https://t.co/d1HnxVfRGC
When students see learning as a lifelong skill, they’re more likely to stick to it. That’s why community schools offer adult education classes and access to social services. Supporting families in this economic crisis is supporting the whole child. #SAVECommunitySchools
.@NYCSpeakerCoJo - The NYS Reimagine Ed Council suggests we utilize community schools for school reopening. We agree! But @NYCMayor just cut the successful @NYC_CommSchools program by $9.1M. Community schools can help students recover & return to learning. #SAVECommunitySchools
"The verdict is in," Mayo de Blasio said in January. “Community schools work." @NYCMayor, why did you then cut @NYC_CommSchools a few months after the initiative was proven to be successful for so many young people and their families? #SAVECommunitySchools

#SAVECommunitySchools At Boys & Girls HS, our Community School Dir. shares a heartwarming story about the mural outside of the bldg, her mentor who made it happen, and how he taught her about community schools before the school became one. @NYCMayor cut the CS budget by $9.16M.
If The Mayor's own Education Advisory Council named community schools as a strategy for school reopening, why has the @NYCMayor still not lifted the community school budget cuts??? #SAVECommunitySchools
Thank you to @Costa4NY for advocating to #SAVECommunitySchools we at Zone 126 roll up our sleeves each day to serve students across the Zone. To rollback progress at Long Island City High School would be a setback to our community and our students. Cc: @NYCMayor@DOEChancellor
4 decades, the sector has been severely underfunded & we were finally going 2 start leveling the playing field by getting paid our true indirect rates. #Nonprofits need 4 you 2 honor that commitment #FundIndirect@NYCMayor @NYCSpeakerCoJo @NYCCouncil@UNHNY@NMICnyc
.@NYCMayor cut $9M from #CommunitySchools during a pandemic. "Community schools build trust and partnership by attending to relationships among all school staff, students, families and community partners"-& we need this more than ever. #SAVECommunitySchools
#CommunitySchools support the whole child, their families, and the community, with learning inside and outside of the classroom. Students in #CommunitySchools attend school moves, feel connected and believe they can learn and achieve. 📚🍎 #everystudenteveryday
The purpose & goal of community schools is to support the whole child & the whole family, which in turn supports the whole community. This “all-hands-on-deck” approach is exactly what our communities need in this moment #SAVECommunitySchools
Among many qualities, school-based health services provide medical care and mental health counselors, dental and vision care that support families we know have been most impacted by this pandemic. This is one of many reasons to #SAVECommunitySchools
