Credible Messengers are essential workers across New York City's social sector. From violence prevention to child welfare to education, they provide unparalleled experience and expertise. The Credible Messenger Movement, which uplifts and advances their work, experienced tremendous growth over the past few decades, spawning numerous organizations and programs. Despite the rise and impact of the movement in New York City, opportunities to convene have dwindled in recent years.
Join the Center for New York City Affairs at The New School (Institute of Transformative Mentoring (ITM) and The New Hood) and Living Redemption Community Development Corporation for connection, conversation, and collaboration. This event brings together people across the field - frontline workers, activists, researchers, government staff, funders, and others - to reflect on the work so far, and to explore moving forward collectively. Attendees will learn from some of the legends of the movement, and will have the opportunity to build partnerships that advance the work.
Together, we will catalyze the next phase of the Credible Messenger Movement in New York City.
