We've made it official! As co-chairs of the NYS Labor-Religion Coalition we are proud to announce an exciting staff change; please join us in officially welcoming the Rev. Emily McNeill as our new Executive Director!

One online dictionary defines the word “brave” as ´ready to face and endure danger or pain.”  At the Neighborhood Check-In: Southern Tier, New York State’s first contribution to the Truth Commission project of the New Poor Peoples’ Campaign, truly brave and heroic people endured great personal pain to raise their voices and share their stories of endurance, courage, and resilience.  None of these amazing people are now living in comfort or luxury.  They are still poor, they still struggle, and they still endure.
