Our story
_______
The New York Nail Salon Workers Association (NYNSWA) is organizing workers and advocating for an approach that will raise standards industry-wide through a multi-tiered effort including worker-focused policy initiatives that compliment high road owners’ efforts to provide fair wages, safe working conditions, and dignity at work.
Hear from our members:
_______
Maria H.
NY nail salon worker since '03
I have been a member of NYNSWA since 2016. It has changed my life, not only because I was able to get my nail license, but also because I learned about my workplace rights. This not only benefited me, but I have also seen other workers reach their goals. We will continue to fight, because what keeps me going is to feel the support of the association and to see the transformation of my fellow workers. - Maria Hernandez
Araceli T.
NY nail salon worker since '08
I support NYNSWA because there is so much injustice in the nail salon industry. We are mothers and working women who are fighting for our families and we deserve to be heard. I want my children and family to be proud of me as a woman, mother, and daughter. - Araceli
