Thanksgiving came early at Riis Settlement's 17th Annual Fall Family Feast. This year, I was happy to once again provide $25,000 for our neighbors to enjoy a hot, fresh Thanksgiving meal. Thanks to our partners at Riis Settlement, @SenatorGonzalez, & the Amazin' Mets Foundation. (1/2)


Had an incredibly rewarding weekend cleaning up McCarren Park & serving food at Riis Settlement’s Fall Family Feast. Thank you to North Brooklyn Parks Alliance for ensuring open, clean, & safe public parks, and to Riis Settlement for hosting an event to give thanks & enjoy a united community.


In partnership with Riis Settlement, the Ravenswood Houses Residents Association, and Kommissary, we hosted a Thanksgiving lunch for Ravenswood residents. (1/2)

Thankful to have worked alongside NY State Senator Kristen Gonzalez yesterday to give away 100 turkeys to our neighbors at Queensbridge Houses. A huge thanks to NYC District Council of Carpenters and MetroPlusHealth for the Turkeys and generous support, and to Riis Settlement for hosting us.



Last week, we bid farewell to our 2 Community Solutions CSP fellows, Abinet and Guisselle, who recently completed their 4-month fellowship with Riis! We're grateful for their contributions, and we'll certainly miss them! Thank you and best of luck in your next chapter!





At UNH's most recent Generations Connect training, staff from 5 settlement houses attended and learned about intergenerational programming through the eyes of program participants from Sunnyside Community Services. Thank you Afnan, Diana and Hotilia!
