Through the power-in-numbers approach, NYCC wins REAL change for our towns and neighborhoods. In neighborhood chapters and issue-based committees, we are working to ensure that every family throughout New York has access to quality schools, affordable housing, and good jobs. New York Communities for Change (NYCC) is a coalition of working families in low and moderate income communities fighting for social and economic justice throughout the State. We are people fighting to make a difference, using our power in numbers to effect change throughout New York. By using direct action, legislative advocacy, and community organizing, our members work to impact the political and economic policies that directly affect us.https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aMyRa88PMbmkGgtgzjSSF9FlrW_yYKQSOhSrXHOEly8/edit NYCC is a leading progressive organization in New York building people power thru neighborhood, tenant and worker organizing.
