Tisch Distinguished Fellow in Public Policy at Hunter College. He served as the CEO of the nonprofit organization Public Good Projects.

Farley discontinued the relationship following publication of PFC's change to for profit status. On May 13, 2021, Mayor Kenney requested Farley's resignation as health commissioner after the public learned that Farley had ordered the destruction in 2017 of the human bodies of victims of the city's 1985 MOVE bombing rather than returning the human remains to the families and without notifying the family of his actions. In 2021, Farley assumed the position in Washington D.C. as the Senior Deputy Director of the Community Health Administration. ==References==
