Currently, CNG has one RV, one box truck and a fleet of cars, many of which are minivans. Whenever the RV is deployed, a minivan follows in the event a patient needs to be transported to detox.

An event commemorating CNG’s five decades of operation was recently held at its Hicksville headquarters located at 950 South Oyster Bay Rd., where numerous local officials and health care partners joined with the organization’s 300-plus staff to commemorate the half century mark. Among the attendees were Nassau County Legislators Rose Walker, Arnold Drucker, Laura Schaefer and Siela Bynoe, along with Town of Oyster Bay Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Dr. Ann Marie Sullivan, the commissioner of the New York State Office of Mental Health and one of the day’s Hope Award honorees.

Dr. Sandeep Kapoor, assistant vice president of addiction services for the Northwell Health Emergency Medicine Serice Line and a close friend of CNG CEO Jeffrey Friedman, served as the master of ceremonies. In a day that also found CNG honoring a number of allies with 2022 Hope Awards and acknowledging the contributions of staff members with 20-plus years of service, Kapoor drove the point home about celebrating the past and looking to the“Asfuture.yougo through today’s experience, please don’t think about only celebrating CN Guidance’s 50 years,” he said. “I would love for everyone to reflect on what we’re going to do in the next 50 years in partnership with them.

In accepting her Hope Award, Sullivan summed up the CNG mission by saying, “It’s a labor of love guys—you do it because you care. You do it because your heart is there and you do it to make a difference. That’s what makes an organization like CNG great.

“As I was in the hospital, a CNG angel came out of nowhere and asked how I was feeling and when I was going to go home,” she said. “I told her I had no home to go to. She then did everything she could do to find a place for me and my son to live other than our car. The CNG team welcomed me and my son with open arms. Where would I be without the help of the CNG team? I was homeless, depressed and very scared with a child by my side. There are so many things I can say about the impact they made on me and my son’s lives. They helped me to find a way to get my education to get my GED. They helped me with problems that were both mental and physical. I could go on and on. They made me see that there are people out there that show love, care and concern for others.”

If teams can raise $1,600 and solo runners can raise $200 for Brighter Tomorrows (almost triple their entry fees, respectively), they will be refunded their entry fee by the race. As teams and individuals tell their families, friends, and strangers why they’re running, they will get others interested in the sport and open their hearts to serving others.

Ocean to Sound was designed to show off the natural beauty that Long Island holds, but it will also show off the natural beauty of the Long Island running community, coming together to raise funds for local families who need a loving hand. —Submitted by the Greater Long Island Running Club

he Ocean to Sound 50 Mile Relay is a classic event for the Greater Long Island Running Club (GLIRC) that will be held on Sunday, Sept. 25. This year, it has earned an even longer name—The Ocean to Sound 50-Mile Relay for Survivors of Domestic Violence Presented by PSEG Long Island. PSEG Long Island has generously signed on as a new presenting sponsor this year to help make sure the event will flourish.

Nelson and Sherman took the opportunity to visit the Brighter Tomorrows Executive Director Dolores Kordon (at an undisclosed location to protect families, employees and volunteers). With them, they bought a big box of blankets leftover from the Club’s 2018 Rob’s Run. Kordon told them that when families in crisis seek emergency shelter, they often leave their homes in the middle of the night with little else but their children and the clothing on their backs, while an abusive partner is out of the home and detained by law enforcement. The shelters are always in need of blankets, infant/toddler clothing and especially in need of diapers.

The race is still open for registration. All participants will receive a race shirt. However, the first 20 teams to enter will receive a special surprise shirt. There are just a few slots remaining for that option so, team captains, get on it.

The club has a bin in their clubhouse located at 101 Dupont St. #24, Plainview, for anyone who wishes to drop off donations before Ocean to Sound. There will be col lection bins for Brighter Tomorrows shelters at the party area of the race on Sept. 25 and everyone is encouraged to bring something with them to donate.

People can spread the virus even if they do not know they are sick, and asymptomatic spread is a high concern among health officials. According to CDC, 70 percent of people infected with polio experience no symptoms. About 25 percent experience mild or flu-like symptoms that may be mistaken for many other illnesses. About 1 in 100 individuals will develop severe disease, including permanent paralysis. Of those paralyzed, 2-10 percent die when their breathing muscles become immobilized. Based on evidence from earlier polio outbreaks, health officials estimate that for every one case of paralytic polio observed, there may be hundreds of other people infected.

n Sept. 9, New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced that traces of the polio virus found in New York City and nearby counties’ wastewater amounts to a ‘public emergency disaster,’ and that the state will be boosting its efforts to combat the illness accordingly.

A time to give thanks for the ways in which we have been blessed and strive to improve our relationships by asking forgiveness and making amends.

When a person is assertive, they are clearly stating what their needs are and why those needs are important.

Communication Styles: The Way We Express Our Needs Matters

When a person is aggressive, they tend to express needs in a hostile manner and cross boundaries when doing so. While a person may be heard, they may offend those they are speaking with/shouting at. Jenna may yell at John, “Get out of my space!” Other examples of aggressive communication involve being caustic.

A person who is being passive aggressive is also hostile in the way they communicate, but it is less direct than being overtly aggressive. For example, Jenna may say, “I wish I had more free time like you to just wander around the apartment during the day.” Here, Jenna is focusing on John’s behavior and is indirectly criticizing John for being in her personal space.

Take Home

When a person is passive, they share their needs, but aren’t direct when doing so. In that respect, they aren’t taking full ownership. Jenna may say, “It would be nice to have more personal time.” Jenna is communicating the need for personal space, but is not explicitly stating it. While John may get the hint

Island Harvest Food Bank Joins Feeding America’s Hunger Action Month Campaign

Hunger Action Month is a time for Long Islanders to mobilize to help end hunger by donating, volunteering or advocating,” Shubin Dresner concluded. Visit www. islandharvest.org to learn more about how you can take action.

SEPTEMBER 21 - 27, 2022 • ANTON MEDIA GROUP8A FULL RUN

During September, people across Nassau and Suffolk counties can participate in the movement by learning, committing and speaking up about ways to end hunger. Other ways include donating food or funds, hosting a food drive at your school, place of worship, business or volunteering.

One in seven Long Island families have experienced food insecurity during the past year. Island Harvest distributed more than 18 million pounds of food, representing 15 million meals during its 2020-21 fiscal year (ending June 30, 2021), an 83 percent increase over the previous reporting period.

or Hunger Action Month this September, Island Harvest Food Bank will join Feeding America and other network member food banks to inspire people to take action and raise awareness of people facing the impossible choice of hunger. Food banks around the country are working to make a real and lasting impact on food insecurity in their communities, and they are asking for the public’s support.

September marks the 14th year of Feeding America, the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization with a nationwide network of 200 food banks, including Island Harvest, and 60,000 partner food pantries and meal programs, has organized the annual call to action. This year’s campaign presents the impossible choices millions of Americans must make between food and other basic needs.

“Many Long Islanders are feeling the economic pressure due to rising costs for food, fuel and other essential commodities, causing them to make difficult decisions, such as buying food or paying to fuel up their cars, or pay a utility bill,” Island Harvest president/CEO Randi Shubin Dresner explained. “And while the demand for supplemental food support continues to rise, Island Harvest remains committed to making sure that no one on Long Island goes without food.”

“For many, a daily meal is a simple choice of what to eat,” Feeding America CEO Claire Babineaux-Fontenot said. “For people facing hunger, a daily meal poses a very different type of choice. It’s often an impossible decision between food or other crucial needs, such as electricity, childcare or medicine. Nobody should be forced to make a choice to go hungry.

Whether a borrower should take out life insurance or get additional coverage to potentially repay student loan debt depends on whether they had a co-signer, the type of loan, and what state they live in. Borrowers and co-signers should look carefully at their loan terms and decide whether they need additional life insurance coverage.

1. The state where the loan was taken out.

co-signers were to pass away, their estate may have to repay the debt. A judge may order the sale of assets the borrower planned to leave to others (such as a house or car) to pay back the lender. In this situation, having an adequate amount of life insurance would help to eliminate this burden and leave those items to go to their original heirs.

Federal vs. Private Student Loan Debt

6B SEPTEMBER 21 - 27, 2022 • PROFILES IN EDUCATION

Co-signing is when a parent or other adult agrees to be responsible for the loan should the borrower default. Co-signing is common for many different types of loans, including student loans.

For private loans, the co-signer may have to continue making payments. The loan contract may also include an acceleration clause. This could mean the lender can make the balance of the loan due immediately if the borrower dies.

Spouses of Borrowers

Like co-signers, spouses may also be on the hook for making payments after the borrower dies. This will largely depend on:

In some states, loans are considered shared or community property. Even if the surviving spouse did not co-sign, places with community property laws will require that they continue to make payments. This is another instance when having life insurance—and, thus, a death benefit—can help alleviate this burden.

How to Use Insurance to Protect Against Student Loan Debt

Many people believe that student loan debt is forgiven if the borrower passes away. However, this is not always the case. It depends on a few factors, including whether the loan was federal or private, and whether the borrower had a co-signer.

2. If the couple was married at the time of the loan.

Who is Responsible for Paying the Debt?

For some federal loans, a co-signer must continue

making payments even if the borrower passes away. This depends on the type of federal loan.

Federal student loans (without a co-signer) are the most straightforward case. By law, these loans are forgiven upon death or total disability, and family members or the estate are not responsible for paying them back. In this case, there is no need for any party involved to increase their life insurance coverage based on the loan.

Also Get Life

ith student loan debt in the United States currently estimated to total $1.762 trillion, the price of higher education is quickly taking its toll on many households. Borrowers may be wondering if they need to consider their student loans when purchasing life insurance coverage. The answer to this depends on what type of loan the borrower has and who signed for it.

Co-signers

On the other hand, private student loans may have different terms. Because private loans are issued through a private lender, the lender can dictate their own rules including the terms of death or disability. The best way to know for sure is to read the fine print.

“Earning a college degree or certificate should give every person in America a leg up in securing a bright future. But for too many people, student loan debt has hindered their ability to achieve their dreams—including buying a home, starting a business, or providing for their family. Getting an education should set us free; not strap us down. That’s why, since Day One, the Biden-Harris administration has worked to fix broken federal student aid programs and deliver unprecedented relief to borrowers,” said U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona. “Today,

Student loan repayment pause is extended through December.

To address the financial harms of the pandemic by smoothing the transition back to repayment and helping borrowers at highest risk of delinquencies or default once payments resume, the department will provide targeted student debt cancel lation to borrowers with loans held by the Department of Education. Borrowers with annual income during the pandemic of under $125,000 (for individuals) or under $250,000 (for married couples or heads of households) who received a Pell Grant in college will be eligible for up to $20,000 in debt cancellation. Borrowers who met those income standards but did not receive a Pell Grant will be eligible for up to $10,000 in relief. The department will be announcing further details on how bor rowers can claim this relief in the weeks ahead. The application will be available no later than when the pause on federal student loan repayments terminates at the end of the year. Nearly eight million borrowers may be eligible to receive relief automatically because relevant income data is already available to the depart ment. The department is also making available a legal memorandum regarding its authority for these discharges.

Thetrap.”department is proposing longterm changes to the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program that will make it easier for borrowers working in public service to gain loan forgiveness. The department proposed allowing more payments to qualify for PSLF including partial, lump sum, and late payments, and allowing certain kinds of deferments and forbearances—such as those for Peace Corps and AmeriCorps service, National Guard duty, and military service—to count toward PSLF. These proposed regulatory changes build on the progress made with the temporary changes announced last year by the department that expire on Oct. 31, 2022. Since the start of the temporary changes, the department has approved more than $10 billion in loan discharges for 175,000 public servants.

—U.S. Department of Education

the proposed rule would fully cover the borrower’s unpaid monthly interest, so that—unlike with current income-driven repayment plans—a borrower’s loan balance will not grow so long as they are making their required monthly payments. The plan would also simplify borrowers’ choices among loan repayment plans. The proposed regulations will be published in the coming days on the Federal Register and the public is invited to comment on the draft rule for 30 days.

The department is also taking steps to reduce the cost of college for students and their families and hold colleges accountable for raising costs, especially when failing to deliver good outcomes to students. The department has already re-established the enforcement unit in the Office of Federal Student Aid and recently withdrew authorization for the accreditor that oversaw schools responsible for some of the worst for-profit scandals. The agency will also propose to reinstate and improve a rule to hold career programs accountable for leaving their graduates with unaffordable debt. New steps will be taken against colleges that have contrib uted to the student debt crisis. These include publishing an annual watch list of the programs with the worst debt levels in the country and requesting institutional improvement plans from colleges with the most concerning debt outcomes that outline how the college intends to bring down debt levels.

he U.S. Department of Education has recently announced a final extension of the pause on student loan repayment, interest, and collections through Dec. 31, 2022. Borrowers should plan to resume payments in January 2023. While the economy continues to improve, COVID cases remain at an elevated level, and the Biden-Harris Administration has made clear that pandemic-related relief should be phased out responsibly so that people do not suffer unnecessary financial harm.

The Department of Education is also proposing a rule to create a new income-driven repayment plan that will substantially reduce future monthly payments for lower- and middle-income borrowers. The proposed rule would protect more income from loan payments. It would cut in half—from 10 percent to five percent of discretionary income—the amount that borrowers have to pay each month on their undergraduate loans, while borrowers with both undergraduate and graduate loans will pay a weighted average rate. It would also raise the amount of income that is considered nondiscretionary income and therefore protected from repayment. The rule would also forgive loan balances after 10 years of payments, instead of the current 20 years under many income-driven repayment plans, for borrowers with original loan balances of $12,000 or less.

Proper vision is crucial for success at school, both in the classroom and when playing sports. While school-based vision screenings are valuable, these exams can miss certain conditions, such as poor eye alignment, focusing issues and farsightedness. That’s why it is recommended children get their first comprehensive eye exam by age one and another prior to starting kindergarten. If no vision issues are detected, then it is recommended children have an exam at least once every two years. Unfortunately, an estimated 600,000 children and teens are blind or have a vision disorder, underscoring the importance of a visit to the eye doctor.

Even after receiving a comprehensive eye exam, it is important to monitor for digital eye strain. This condition can be caused by the overuse of digital devices, such as computers or smartphones, and can contribute to headaches, dry eyes and neck or shoulder pain. Some tips to help avoid digital eye strain include keeping computer screens at

Proper dental health can help your kids stay confident and smiling, and also benefit their overall well-being. That’s because oral health contributes to overall health, helping the body protect itself from infections, systemic inflammation and various types of diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. While tooth decay is largely preventable, it unfortunately ranks as the most common chronic disease among children. In fact, by age five, nearly 50 percent of children have at least one cavity. To help prevent that, consider scheduling a dental exam at the start of the school year and every six months after that.

Your Back-To-School Checklist

• Use a credit card for online purchases, if possible. Credit cards offer the most protection against fraud, including the right to dispute charges if there are problems with your purchase.

• Your child’s personal information cannot be sold or released for any commercial purposes.

Think Privacy

Under New York State’s Education Law, if you are a parent of a child in the New York State schools, you have rights regarding the privacy and security of your child’s personal information and data. State law requires each educational agency to publish its Data Privacy and Security Policy to its website. Technology has become a permanent fixture of the education experience. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently issued a policy statement that put educational technology on notice about children’s privacy. In other words, educational tech companies can’t require parents and schools to agree to the comprehensive surveillance of children for kids to use those learning tools. Thus, parents and guardians need to place close attention to the technology children use, what information they collect, and how they use it.

• Be careful when providing identifying information to after-school activities and sports clubs upon registration. If asked for a Social Security number (SSN), inquire why it is needed and insist on using another identifier. Oftentimes organizations include the SSN request as a formality, and it may not be mandatory.

• Download retail apps only from trusted sources. Cybercriminals are now creating apps that look and might even function like legitimate retail apps but are actually malware designed to steal your personal and financial information, send text messages without your knowledge, or even track your location using your phone’s GPS capabilities.

prices, or discounts beyond 50 percent, consumers should be wary and diligently verify the legitimacy of the seller.

• Learn how to spot phishing emails: Scammers may send phishing emails to students and parents saying that they missed a delivery of school supplies. These emails request that the recipients click on a link to reschedule this delivery. That link either floods victims’ computers with malware or sends them to fake websites that request their personal and payment information.

• If you have questions about student data, please see information available for parents from The New York State Department of Education.

• Protect documents that contain a child’s personal information. Understand where your child’s information is stored. Ask how after-school organizations and sports clubs secure their records: Are digital records connected to the internet and, if so, are they encrypted? Are physical records in locked filing cabinets? Who has access?

Other ways to pay close attention to your child’s personal information:

• If your child is under age 18, you have the right to inspect and review the complete contents of your child’s education records.

Back-to-school shopping is the second largest spending event for parents (behind holiday shopping). Often, a shopping scam starts with a fake website, mobile app or, increasingly, a social media ad. This year, smartphone shopping is on the rise as people are on the move again. DCP urges consumers to take note of common scams while shopping. Scammers may try to exploit the backto-school rush through fraudulent ads or through other forms of solicitations.

• Watch out for fake coupons on social media: If the coupon doesn’t come from a recognized coupon distributor, the manufacturer, or a specific store, be wary.

• Protect your identity when shopping online: Ensure transactions are conducted over a secure connection. Make sure the website is secure by identifying a padlock symbol by the URL or the https and avoid using public Wi-Fi to log in to online accounts.

The NYS Division of Consumer Protection (DCP) is providing targeted scam prevention and shopping tips for parents and “Back-to-schoolchildren.shopping is the second largest spending event for parents, after the holidays, which makes it critically important for parents to know how to safeguard against scams to protect their privacy and finances,” said Secretary of State Robert J Rodriguez. “And as more and more schools use technology as a teaching tool, parents should know what information is being obtained from their student and how to protect their children’s identity and privacy. Children should not have to give up their privacy rights just to do their homework. I urge parents to use these tips so students from elementary school to high school stay safe this school year.”

including full names, addresses, phone numbers, Social Security numbers, or even where they go to school. Social media posts often reveal sensitive information unintentionally. Cybercriminals look for content that can reveal answers to security questions used to reset passwords, making accounts vulnerable to identity theft.

Below is some guidance on how to start the new school year safely.

Some highlights to know about this law:

• Beware of fake ads and websites: As fraudsters continue to advance in sophistication, fake websites frequently resemble legitimate sites with credible looking logos, pictures, and payment options. If the website is advertising extremely low

• Ensure you know who the seller is. Some major retailers allow third party sellers to list items on their site, and those items can be hard to distinguish from the rest. Read all the fine print to ensure you are comfortable with the seller.

“He is my favorite. I can’t believe the two things he accomplishes at once which is a striking emotional impact with the portraits that he does. And then, the other thing is, they’re so weird. It’s like some weird alchemy. How does he make you fall in love with the subjects and yet, they are distorted and the colors are all freaky. Everything about it is freaky. It’s still a beautiful image that transmits something really special of love of the subject, so I love that about him.”

“I think Basquiat had so much talent in being able to compose properly, his completely freaky, chaotic paintings. We all know them as being completely chaotic and busy, but they never lose their balanced sense of composition and I think this is a sign of a true artist. I think Warhol had the same talent. They were very different, but if they had to, they were really good representational artists. They could draw anatomy 24-7. What it goes to show us is a very unique approach to art.

“He was another crazy painter from 100 years ago that again used freaky colors. His use of irides cent colors at a time when people weren’t using them—if I could go back in time, I’d ask him what he was on. How come everything is so different? There is a spiritual side to what he’s trying to communi cate that I think is so unique and beautiful.”

South also gets home safely if East instead leads a heart, yielding a ruff-and-discard, or returns a spade into the A-Q.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your interests naturally lead you to connect with a vast network of like minds making noble e orts. One thing you all have in common is a strong sense of personal responsibility that extends past what most people consider themselves accountable to. You’ll try to x something that you didn’t

Opening lead — queen of hearts. The fate of many hands is deter mined primarily by how the oppo nents’ cards are distributed, rather than by the skill of the declarer. But before a declarer decides that the outcome is purely a matter of luck, he should make sure he has considered all of his options. Take this deal, where making five clubs appears to depend on the location of the ace of diamonds and king of spades. If West has both of those cards, declarer can make 12 tricks by taking the spade finesse and later leading up to the diamond king.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your voice will be heard, so you’re keen to express the right thing. Matters of image come into focus. It’s not vanity, rather it’s the politics necessary for the advancement of aims that a ect more than just you. You’re daring but also tuned into the reactions of others, determined to leave a mark, not a SAGITTARIUSstain.(Nov.

21-June 21). You may have the same emotional needs as a loved one, but you prioritize them di erently, and this is where the con ict comes in. For instance, your need for security may come up against their need for adventure. e stars favor a brilliant compromise that suits all better than any individual win would have.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You can be trusted to react quickly to situations and handle life like a boss -- not perfectly, but appropriately. at’s real con dence, and it will attract people to you this week. So don’t feel like you have to impress anyone because what you’re already doing, just by being you, is impressive enough.

Nor does it matter if West actu ally has the ace of diamonds. As long as dummy’s ten is played after West follows low (or if the king is played if West produces the queen or jack), the defenders are helpless.

22-Dec. 21). Being very busy isn’t always helpful or virtuous, nor does it indicate an inscrutable work ethic. In fact, doing too many things at once can be a method of self-sabotage. Decide where to focus and try to master that task or skill before you start anything else. Balance will be intrinsic to CAPRICORNsuccess.(Dec.22-Jan.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Flaws are something people have, not something they are. Mistakes are actions, not de nitions. It will help you to recognize the di erence between behavior and character, and to count on the fact that people can change. is week brings opportunities to be compassionate toward yourself and toward others.

Solution:

South wins the first heart, ruffs a heart in dummy, leads a trump to the ace and ruffs his remaining heart. The closed hand is then entered with a trump, and a dia mond is led.

Alternatively, if each opponent has one of the critical cards, declarer loses either two diamonds or a diamond and a spade. But if East has both key cards, it would seem that South must lose a spade and two diamonds and go down one. Yet closer inspection reveals that, with proper play, declarer can make his contract regardless of how the adverse cards are distributed.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Emotions are unpredictable. e same thing that makes one person feel positive is a negative trigger for another.

Note that it doesn’t help if West puts up the queen when the dia mond is first led. In that case, declarer simply covers with the king, and East finds himself in the same unpleasant position.

Ken Haskell, brother of Timothy and Thomas and president of the Seaford 9/11 Memorial Committee, said the aftermath

New faculty members received a warm welcome into the Bethpage Union Free School District during the district’s annual new teacher orientation on Aug. 24. The day allowed them to get acclimated to the district before the first day of school on Sept. 1.

Their family members were joined by a crowd well more than 1,000 people, including Seaford administrators, teachers, staff and students as well as community members, firefighters, police officers, scouts, clergy, representatives of local service organizations and elected officials. Umbrellas were up as they listened to master of ceremonies and retired teacher Steve Bongiovi talk about the exemplary character of the five alumni and how Seaford will “always be blessed by the presence of them in our Superintendenthearts.”

staff and shared their position in the district, along with their background. Schneider encouraged the new teachers to seek support from administrators and directors throughout the school year and reinforced the importance of working as a team. During the day, the new faculty members participated in meetings and got acquainted with their individual schools. The orientation provided a smooth transition into the Bethpage Union Free School District.

Despite a steady rain, the 9/11 Memorial Candle Lighting Ceremony at Seaford High School drew its usual large crowd on the evening of Sept. 11, there to honor all those who died in the terrorist attacks 21 years ago. Vowing to “never forget,” it has remained a priority for the community to come together each year on the anniversary to pay tribute to everyone who perished that day including five alumni—Timothy Haskell (Class of 1982), Thomas Haskell (1985), John Perry (1982), Robert Sliwak (1977) and Michael Wittenstein (1985).

Student Council Co-Advisor Shari Raduazzo announced the service pledges that 2022 Patriot Award recipients Alexandra Leggio and Bryant Wong would present to Superin tendent Dr. Adele Pecora.

In addition to honoring those who died in the attacks, Mr. Haskell said to also remember those who were killed in the subsequent War on Terror.The Seaford Patriot Award, presented every year in honor of the five alumni, is given to five students who best exemplify character, commitment and service.
