About The State of Black New York Report
The New York Urban League Releases “State of Black New York” Report, the first in over a decade, in conjunction with Robin Hood Columbia University Poverty Tracker with support from United Way of New York City and New York Women’s Foundation. The “State of Black New York” report covers vital, contemporary issues affecting African Americans in New York City. The report was commissioned by The New York Urban League to examine the position of Black households in the city’s growth economy and highlights disparities among Black New Yorkers and proposes solutions across the organization’s program areas: Economics, Education, Digital Divide, Civic Engagement, Social (Criminal) Justice, and Health.
