The mission of the New York Paid Leave Coalition (founded in 2000 as the New York State Paid Family Leave Coalition) is to promote sensible workplace policy change in New York to build greater economic security for working families, particularly those most vulnerable. We do this by educating organizations, elected officials, and key constituencies, as well as elevating the voices, stories and leadership of impacted community members.
