The New York City unemployment rate is the highest in over a decade.
We train for the future.
So people have one.
350,000 working New Yorkers live in poverty. Robin Hood offers many of them hope by training them for jobs that address the city's future needs as well as their own. That means jobs that won't disappear. Without this training, it would be difficult for these willing workers to lift themselves up and see past their next paycheck.
