LSSNY Honored for Helping Communities in Need

LSSNY was recently honored by The Interchurch Center with the Community Service Award for our work in serving communities in need. The award was received by our CEO & President Damyn Kelly along with members of the leadership team.

"Know Your Rights" Forums

The Commissioner of the Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs, Bitta Mostofi, joined City agencies and community partners—including LSSNY—to announce $350,000 in funding from NYC and Robin Hood for “Know Your Rights” forums, which informs immigrant workers about their legal rights and access to services.

Free Citizenship Classes

LSSNY is partnering with Women for Afghan Women to offer free ESL and citizenship exam preparation.
