I am a tax-paying Westchester resident, and I want you to...  

  • Keep the parent share of child care cost constant, to support our youngest residents and keep their parents working.
  • Restore Invest-in-Kids Funding which provides dozens of programs - such as tutoring, mentoring, arts, leadership, job readiness - for thousands of young people throughout the County. 

  • Maintain our Neighborhood Health Centers, which provide medical care for thousands of uninsured children and families in communities from Cortlandt to Mt. Vernon.
  • Continue funding for Early Step Forward, an innovative program that helps young children, parents and child care staff understand and cope with difficult emotions and behaviors.
