Government agencies have urged closing office locations and avoiding in-person contact to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19. To do our part and protect clients and staff, NYLPI’s offices are temporarily closed to the public. We are working remotely and at full capacity as we shift our work to respond to changing need.
