CPC Stands with Over 2,000 Advocates at #JustPay Rally

May
14

On May 14th, CPC joined over 2,000 human services workers and allies at the #JustPay rally outside City Hall to support Wage Equity Legislation (Int 0452), a bill that would align nonprofit and city government job titles to help close the 30% pay gap faced by nonprofit human services workers. CPC President and CEO Wayne Ho served as one of the rally's MCs, highlighting that nonprofit workers deserve fair pay as they keep New York City running but earn less than city workers doing the same jobs. These workers ensure older adults are fed, immigrants learn English, young people become leaders, and children are educated. They deserve fair pay.
