Worker Safety Plan

06 Feb 2018

Due to ​workers occasionally messaging us with intent to self-harm, and the recent passing of Doug Schifter, we feel it’s important to post some important resources if you or a loved one are considering self-harm.

  1. Suicide​ ​Hotline:​ 800-273-8255
  2. Local​ ​Emergency​ ​Room:​ ​NYC​ ​Health​ ​and​ ​Hospitals/Woodhull
    Address:​ ​760​ ​Broadway​ ​Brooklyn,​ ​NY​ ​11206
