David, for 16 seasons you displayed an unmatched combination of creativity, poise, and wit – with an uncanny knack for coming up clutch – while remaining humble and determined through all your success.

You are a special player, person, and teammate who has made a lasting impact…

One of the very best to don the Spoked-B.

Thank you for everything, Krecho.

Congratulations on a legendary career, Patrice! 👏

Thanks for the memories, Patrice.

Patrice, there are not enough words to describe the impact you have left on our organization, your teammates, the people you’ve worked with, the fans you gave everything for, and the city and region you represented so well.

You did it all with the utmost respect, class, and…

Looch wanted to say hello 👋

Non-profit contracted workers provide so much for New Yorkers in need, but their wages are woefully out of step with the salaries of other workers in similar jobs.

That’s why we are calling on the City to commit to a multi-year pay increase for these essential workers!

#JustPay

The Consortium for Worker Education Jobs to Build On and Workers Service Centers programs work everyday to provide needed occupational training services to tens of thousands of NYC residents across all 51 New York City Council districts. Council funding for these programs makes these services possible

📣 BIG NEWS! We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Human Services Action (HSA), our NEW 501(c)(4).

HSA will strengthen the political power of human services organizations and bring our fight for #JustPay to the next level!
