Promoting Paid Family Leave Partners

New York State Paid Leave Coalition

The New York State Paid Leave Coalition is part of a multi-state consortium of 16 state coalitions and national policy and data experts working for paid sick days, family leave insurance and other policies that value families at work. The Coalition includes advocates working on behalf of women, children, the aged, labor business, restaurant workers, immigrants and public health advocates. For more than a decade, the Coalition has advocated for paid sick days and for family leave insurance policies in New York while also raising the level of public awareness and discourse around comprehensive work/life policies.

The New York State Paid Leave Coalition is a part of 16 partners in the Family Values at Work Consortium - a national consortium of state coalitions and policy experts fighting for paid time to care.
