Campaign Spotlight: Welfare & Workforce Development

About the Welfare & Workforce Development Campaign

Members of CVH who receive public assistance and low-wage workers are fighting for improvements in the workforce and welfare systems in New York City and State, and to end the public sector unpaid Work Experience Program (WEP). Our members demand policies and programs across city and state agencies that are not just band-aid solutions to poverty. We're working to make sure the New York City and State governments move welfare recipients into living-wage jobs, improve employment services programs and invest in career-ladder training programs that reflect the needs of the market. 

Get Involved!
