Williamsville Village Hall is a fixture in our community, welcoming residents every day for all matters of business. I was happy to help secure $325,000 for renovations and upgrades to make the building more ADA compliant and accessible for all.

Evictions are destabilizing to families and communities. I secured $10M in the state budget to help prevent evictions in Upstate NY - with $1.5M coming to Erie County. By increasing assistance for families facing eviction, we can keep people in their homes and out of shelters.

We were 1st in the movement category of marching in the 49th annual Juneteenth festival! The movement category was choreographed by our own Shanika Williams & was to the song "Happy," by Pharell. It was inclusive to all participants with movement and dance for all abilities. YAY!

Join The Arc of Monroe in urging @GovKathyHochul, @CarlHeastie, & @AndreaSCousins to invest in people with IDD in this year’s final budget! We need a true 3.2% COLA to maintain operations & a $4k DSWE to rebuild New York’s DSP workforce. #nydadayofaction #investinme

We're advocating for a 3.2% COLA without contingencies so provider agencies and I/DD professionals have the resources they need. tinyurl.com/5etneuck

More than 2 weeks after the deadline & the budget still isn't passed Let's remind @GovKathyHochul @CarlHeastie @AndreaSCousins to do what's right: Invest In NYers w/Disabilities Use racker.org/advocacy to amplify the message of 1000s of DSPs & people w/disabilities across NY

‼️@GovKathyHochul @CarlHeastie @AndreaSCousins‼️ Prioritize investments for New Yorkers with IDD in the final budget! Enact a 3.2% COLA for the nonprofit IDD service sector and Direct Support Wage Enhancement. Send a letter to your elected officials: bit.ly/3TWciKZ

🚨Calling all New York I/DD Advocates🚨 Let’s show @GovKathHochul, @AndreaSCousins, and @CarlHeastie what #InvestinME means to you by wearing orange today! Share a photo or video of yourself in orange along with a message on what a 3.2% COLA and a $4,000 DSWE would mean to you!
