Governor Hochul Added Three Million to Save Afterschool Programs in NYC!
Yesterday, the news announced that Governor Hochul restored NYS funding for one year to afterschool programs, which didn’t receive funding in NYC. (News)
No programs in our area have announced any funding or that their program was restored, so let’s hope they are receiving some of the money.
Thankfully, Governor Hochul heard the parents and District 20’s CEC. Thank you Steven Stowe, Elizabeth Chen, John Riccotone and Joyce Xie for rallying on Labor Day Weekend for Families! (See here)
Bay Ridge and Dyker Heights, elect new state representatives because Andrew Gounardes and Iwen Chu didn’t tell parents or Bay Ridge that NYS had cut this funding.
Neither Senator showed up at the rally on September 1st to stand with the parents! Andrew Gounardes has rallied for the wrong thing in our community – see here
Hugs,
