About

Schuyler Center for Analysis and Advocacy is a statewide, nonprofit, policy analysis and advocacy organization working to shape New York State policies to improve health, welfare and human services for all New Yorkers, especially children and families experiencing poverty.

Schuyler Center is a leader in advocating for policy solutions that address child poverty and its related hardships, including spearheading the NYS Child Poverty Reduction Act and its implementation, advocating for a robust child tax credit, prioritizing universal child care in the state budget, advocating for a family-centered child welfare system, and supporting state investments that support child and family wellbeing.

For more than 150 years, Schuyler Center has led advocacy rooted in compassion, evidence, and the belief that government should work for the greater good. Schuyler Center’s work acknowledges the historic racism woven throughout shared systems, and advocates for public policies that seek to address inequities while improving health, welfare, and human services for all New Yorkers.

Schuyler Center achieves its goals through creative and detailed policy analysis, coalition-building, and advocacy with elected officials, agency executives, policymakers, and stakeholders.
