County Budget Hearing TONIGHT
Let Your Voice Be Heard |
|
Be heard in Pleasantville tonight.
Child services was NOT the big issue at the Hearing in Yonkers last week. Let's change that... Wear yellow tonight to show your support for children! Members of the public may attend and may address the County Legislators about any aspect of the budget. Speakers can register to speak beginning at 6PM and are generally called in order of signing up. Each speaker has two minutes.
Be heard online.
Use our e-mail tool to tell County Executive Astorino and your County Legislator that you support smart budget choices for children and families. Tell them:
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.
Forward this to others who should be heard.
