SUMMARY:NYC Funds Tracker: How Past Fiscal Trends Shape NYC’s Future
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\n  \nWhat does New York City’s budget mean for New Yorkers’ economic security? \nJoin FPWA and specials guests from the New York City Independent Budget Office for a webinar breaking down over a decade of city budget decisions and what it means for New Yorkers and the human services sector going forward. The discussion will draw on the latest FY25 update to FPWA’s NYC Funds Tracker\, an interactive dashboard designed to simplify budget data for advocates. \nThe conversation will also examine how years of fiscal choices\, combined with Federal cuts\, have undercut human service funding and investments in low-income New Yorkers. By breaking down how the City raises revenue and allocates spending\, we can identify opportunities to build a budget that fosters economic security for all.
