Community Service Society
The Community Service Society of New York (CSS) is an informed, independent, and unwavering voice for positive action on behalf of more than 3 million low-income New Yorkers. CSS draws on a 170-year history of excellence in addressing the root causes of economic disparity through research, advocacy, litigation, and innovative program models that strengthen and benefit all New Yorkers. Year after year, representatives of every income level in New York City tell us that they support aggressive measures to help hard-working New Yorkers get ahead. Our Urban Agenda is a three-point action plan that creates opportunity, secures families, and strengthens New York.
