Urban Justice Center – Street Vendor Project

The Street Vendor Project (SVP) is a membership-based organization that champions the rights of street vendors as small businesses to earn a living and contribute to the culture and life of New York City. We strive to expand vending as a viable, lawful employment option for immigrants and other entrepreneurs. Through direct legal representation, small business training, organizing support, leadership development, and strategic legislative advocacy, SVP builds power and community among vendors. SVP is part of the Urban Justice Center, a nonprofit organization that provides legal representation and advocacy to marginalized groups of New Yorkers.
