Excited to join the #FundYouthNYC town hall! We need remote summer jobs and summer camps to keep our communities healthy and safe this summer!

Testing at churches, mosques and other trusted community institutions just makes sense. Where would you rather go in a crisis? Thank you First Baptist Church for opening your doors and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for setting the right example!

Errol Louis (@errollouis.bsky.social) Can you please ask the Mayor about his commitment to shifting funding from the NYPD to youth services? Is he going to put money back in SYEP and summer camp? If he is he can't wait until the budget is done. Providers need to know now so we have time to prep. 1/2

Youth programs say de Blasio plan to reallocate NYPD funds is nonsense nypost.com/2020/06/10/you… via New York Post Metro “The big frustration is to hear the mayor say they’re shifting funds from the NYPD to youth services and we as providers haven’t heard anything,” said Ben Thomases, 1/2

Lies! Mayor Eric Adams has cut the budget for summer youth programming. Providers across the city have been calling for funding to be restored before thousand or workers are furloughed. The Mayor hasn’t listened.
