Win provides safe housing and critical services to help homeless women and their children rebuild their lives and break the cycle of homelessness.
This is what we called for in #ProjectHope: NYC using local dollars to renew early childhood funding and stabilize Head Start amid federal threats. We commend the City for taking this important step toward supporting our youngest learners & their families.
Today, Win’s VP of Innovative Programs, Megan Melamed, joined @WomensCaucusNYC and advocates at City Hall to discuss the FY26 budget. Thank you for providing the platform to highlight how Win supports direct care staff and strengthens NYC’s human services workforce.
In NYC, nearly a third of families in shelter include at least one working adult earning $40K-$50K—but even these wages can't keep up with the city's affordability crisis. This is a stark reminder that work isn't always enough to secure a home.
