Fighting Poverty, Strengthening New York – A podcast from the Community Service Society

by

The Community Service Society of New York (CSS) has worked with and for New Yorkers since 1843 to promote economic opportunity and champion an equitable city and state. We center the voices and experiences of communities of color and people facing economic insecurity, powering change through a strategic combination of research, services, and advocacy. By expanding access to health care, affordable housing, employment opportunities, debt assistance, and more, we make a tangible difference in the lives of millions. Join us in powering a more equitable New York by visiting cssny.org. Fighting Poverty, Strengthening New York, is a podcast that explores the diverse work done at CSS. In each episode, we dive into an issue affecting people facing economic insecurity, such as affordable housing and health care. We head into the field to hear from those affected, and from CSS staff striving to make New York a more equitable place.
