Overview

Overview

The Education & Opportunity team is responsible for assessing pathways towards a quality work — life balance — starting from access, quality, and delivery of education to career preparation and programs. This division examines threats to the working class, working poor and unemployed; the realities of school segregation; disparities in school discipline; and the bridge between education and career to ensure all New Yorkers and their families thrive with economic stability and fully realize their strengths.

Get Empowered with our list of resources, including supports as students, parents, families, workers, union members, small business owners, community members, and more.
