The mission of the Fund for Public Advocacy is to serve and promote the public good by engaging New York City residents in policy making and programs that make government more responsive, accountable, innovative and transparent. The Fund for Public Advocacy, affiliated with the Office of the New York City Public Advocate, is an independent nonprofit organization created to aid and advance critical New York City civic issues.
The Fund for Public Advocacy identifies strategic projects, working with partners, to address civic issues through a three pronged approach: 1) our advocacy voice, 2) evidence gathering and 3) recommendations for sustainable solutions.
