New York, NY – Hundreds of workers across New York are expected to lose their jobs this summer as Cayuga Centers prepares to shut down operations in multiple locations.
According to a WARN notice circulating publicly, Cayuga Centers plans to lay off a total of 335 employees due to a permanent facility closure effective June 30, 2026. The layoffs will impact several regions, with the largest number of job losses concentrated in New York City.
The notice indicates that 319 employees will be affected at the organization’s location on 1916 Park Avenue in New York City. Additional layoffs include 14 employees in Auburn, located at 101 Hamilton Street, along with one employee each in Albany and Utica.
Cayuga Centers, a nonprofit organization known for providing human services and child welfare programs, has not publicly detailed the reasons behind the closure in the notice. However, WARN filings are typically required when large-scale layoffs or closures are planned, giving workers advance notice.
The job cuts could have ripple effects in the impacted communities, particularly in Auburn and other smaller cities where employment opportunities may be more limited. In New York City, the high number of affected employees could add pressure to an already competitive job market.
Employees are expected to remain on payroll until the closure date at the end of June. It remains unclear whether any workers will be offered transfers or assistance with job placement.
State labor officials generally provide resources for displaced workers, including unemployment benefits and job transition support, following large-scale layoffs.
