We're excited to announce 70 for 70 - our version of @30for30 - celebrating 70 competitive employment positions earned by #CUNYLEADS students within a year of graduation while reaching our goal of 70% employment. That's over 2x the disability employment rate in New York! 🙌

"Sheer, high-volume, full accessibility across the system. And Mr. Byford said it loud and proud." nytimes.com/2018/07/24/nyreg… With the right leadership, a shift in attitudes towards accessibility at @NYCTSubway has happened so quickly. Let's hope this rubs off on @MTA as a whole!
