State extends HEAP energy applications to Aug. 31 BY RICK MILLER The Cattaraugus County Department of Social Services will continue to accept applications for Home Energy Assistance Program, or HEAP, through Aug. 31. The program was previously scheduled to close on April 30. This extension means that the program will run alongside another critical component of the HEAP program, the Cooling Assistance Component (CAC), which will begin accepting applications on May 3, 2021. Benefits are provided on a first come first serve basis. Households may be eligible for the CAC benefit if they have not received a HEAP funded air conditioner in the past 5 years. To be eligible for a CAC benefit the applicant or somebody in the household must have a documented medical condition that is exacerbated by extreme heat. With the release of additional funding for New York State to operate the HEAP program, beginning

immediately, a third emergency benefit will be authorized for those HEAP eligible households that can document that a heating/ utility emergency exists. That includes a utility shutoff notice or their utility service is already off, there is less than 25% fuel left in oil/propane/kerosene tanks, or there is less than a 10 day supply of wood/wood pellets/coal. Under the directive from the state, the Cattaraugus County Department of Social Services will continue to accept applications postmarked or submitted electronically at www.myBenefits.ny.gov, until the close of business on Aug. 31. Applications will also continue to be accepted by the Department of Aging for those individuals over 60 years of age. For more information about applying for HEAP through the Department of Aging, call (716) 701-8032 or 1-800-462-2901. It is not necessary to come into the office to receive these benefits. There are contactless options for applying, interviewing

and submitting necessary documentation. For additional information regarding the HEAP program please contact the Department of Social Services at the numbers listed below, or visit us at the Heating and Energy Assistance page of the Cattaraugus County website, and can be found at

ht t ps://w w w.c at tco.or g / social-services/HEAP. To have an application mailed to you, ask general questions, or to report an emergency, please call (716) 701-3774. Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. If calling after hours, leave a message and somebody will get back to you on the next business day.

Ca araugus County Republican Party Chairman Robert C. Keis Sr. joined his counterparts in Albany earlier in April to hear presentations from prospective gubernatorial candidates. U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin, a conservative Long Island congressman, is the early front-runner, garnering support from about 37% of New York’s county GOP leaders. Keis said he has not pledged his support to any candidate, yet, but agrees with his counterparts at the county level who believe Zeldin is the best candidate. The group plans to meet again in about 60 days to see if a consensus candidate has emerged, Keis told the Times Herald on April 22. He believes as much as 75% of the chairmen will be able to settle on a candidate and help avoid a costly primary. Allegany County GOP chairman Mike Healey is among the group of Western New York and Finger Lakes chairs who are squarely in Zeldin’s corner. Is it too early for candidates to begin jockeying for the GOP nomination to run in November 2022? Keis said he favors candidates starting early — 18 months early in this case. “The intent is not to have a primary,” he said. “We were not there to make a decision.” While not commi ed, Keis added, “I feel that Zeldin is our candidate.” In addition to Zeldin, who has been elected to three

terms in the U.S. House from Suffolk County, the county chairs heard presentations from former candidates for governor Rob Astorino and Marc Molinaro, and from former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani’s son, Andrew Guilaini, a former White House advisor. Others were Lewis County Sheriff Mike Carpanelli, Orange County Executive Steve Neuhaus, Rensselaer County Executive Steve McLaughlin and Rockland County Executive Edward Day. Zeldin’s presentation drew the most interest, Keis said. Upstate’s Rep. Elise Stefanik, another prominent name mentioned among possible GOP challengers of Gov. Andrew Cuomo, could not a end the Albany event. State Republican Chairman Nick Langworthy of Erie County has not commi ed to any candidate at this time. In the past two gubernatorial elections, Astorino and Molinaro didn’t start raising money until early in the year of the election, Keis said. That le« them at a disadvantage against Cuomo, who had the power of the incumbency and was flush with campaign funds. Cuomo has about $28 million in his campaign account, yet he is besieged seemingly on all sides over multiple scandals and investigations. Cuomo is facing several sexual harassment accusations, including from female staffers, accusations he directed an undercount

of COVID-19 nursing home deaths and reports that state employees assisted in preparing the governor’s book about the state’s response to the pandemic. The governor is under investigation by state A orney General Letitia James and the Assembly. Nevertheless, Cuomo has resisted calls to resign — a prospect that appears far less likely as each week passes. “I’d like to see Cuomo be the candidate,” said Keis. “The nursing home thing will hurt Cuomo with voters.” Many families lost relatives in nursing homes where Cuomo sent COVID patients a«er their discharge from hospitals. Keis agreed that the nursing home cases also came from employees and visitors. Keis said James might even run in a Democratic primary against Cuomo. “With Cuomo’s baggage, I’d love to see him as the Democratic candidate,” Keis said. “I think he’s extremely vulnerable. “I think Lee Zeldin is head and shoulders the best candidate,” Keis continued. Both Molinaro and Astorino “ran good campaigns. They had their chance.” Zeldin, he said, “is a strong Second Amendment guy.” He expects Zeldin to outline his other views and policy proposals in May as he travels the state. “We’ve got to make this decision and give whoever it is a chance to raise money,” Keis said.

In tough times, communities find strength in people—and people find strength in their communities. In the past year, we’ve seen this time and again as friends, neighbors, and businesses have found new ways to support each other. In our community, older adults are a key source of this strength. Through their experiences, successes, and difficulties, they have built resilience

MAY 2021

that helps them to face new challenges. In our community, older adults are a key source of this strength. Through their experiences, successes, and difficulties, they have built resilience that helps them to face new challenges. When communities tap into this, they become stronger too. Each May, the Administration for Community Living leads the celebration of Older Americans Month (OAM). This year’s theme is Communities of Strength, recognizing the important role older adults play in fostering the connection and engagement that build strong, resilient communities. Strength is built and shown not only by bold acts, but also small ones of day-to-day life—a conversation shared with a friend, working in the garden, trying a new recipe, or taking time for a cup of tea on a busy day. And when we share these activities with others—even virtually or by telling about the experience later—we help them build resilience too. This year, we will celebrate OAM by encouraging community members to share their experiences. Together, we can find strength—and create a stronger future.

Here are some ways to share and connect:

•Look for joy in the everyday: Celebrate small moments and ordinary pleasures by taking time to recognize them. Start a gratitude journal and share it with others via social media, or call a friend or family member to share a happy moment or to say thank you. •Reach out to neighbors: Even if you can’t get together in person right now, you can still connect with your neighbors. Leave a small gift on their doorstep, offer to help with outdoor chores, or deliver a homecooked meal. •Build new skills: Learning something new allows us to practice overcoming challenges. Take an art course online or try a socially distanced outdoor movement class to enjoy learning with others in your community. Have a skill to share? Find an opportunity to teach someone, even casually. •Share your story: There’s a reason storytelling is a time-honored activity. Hearing how others experience the world helps us grow. Interviewing family, friends, and neighbors can open up new conversations and strengthen our connections. When people of different ages, backgrounds, abilities, and talents share experiences—through action, story, or service—we help build strong communities. And that’s something to celebrate!

USDA Seeks Comments on Food System Supply Chains WASHINGTON, NY— Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack today announced that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is seeking comments on a Department-wide effort to improve and reimagine the supply chains for the production, processing and distribution of agricultural commodities and food products. USDA is taking this action in response to Executive Order 14017, America’s Supply Chains, signed by President Biden on Feb. 24, 2021. The request for comments is published today in the Federal Register and the comment period will close on May 21, 2021. The comments received will help USDA assess the critical factors, risks, and strategies needed to support resilient, diverse, and secure supply chains and ensure U.S. economic prosperity, national security, and nutrition security for all Americans. Such supply chains are needed to address conditions that can reduce critical processing and infrastructure capacity and the availability and integrity of critical goods, products, and services. Identifying food system supply chain-bottlenecks and vulnerabilities also may provide valuable insights into the competitive and fair markets landscape, effects on local and regional producers and processors, and equitable access to food and economic opportunity across diverse communities. USDA will use the comments to prepare a report required by Executive Order 14017. “We have an opportunity to take the lessons we’ve learned from the COVID-19 pandemic and apply those to transforming our nation’s food system from the inside out, including our supply chains,” said Vilsack. “USDA plans to tackle this

supply chain assessment holistically – looking across a full range of risks and opportunities. From elevating the importance of local and regional food systems, to addressing the needs of socially disadvantaged and small to mid-size producers, to supporting sustainable practices to advance resilience and competitiveness, this top to bottom assessment will position USDA to make long-term, transformative changes for economic, national, and nutritional security.” In addition to asking about the agricultural supply chain, USDA is interested in comments about how to target pandemicrelated stimulus relief programs and spending authorized by Congress in the Consolidated Appropriations Act (CAA) and American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) toward long term, systemic change that results in food supply chain resiliency. In particular, the request for comment seeks input on: bolstering local and regional food systems; Developing new market opportunities (including for value-added agriculture and products); creating fairer

and more competitive markets; meeting the needs of the agricultural workforce; supporting and promoting consumers’ nutrition security, particularly for low-income populations; addressing the needs of socially disadvantaged and small to mid-sized producers, and advancing efforts in other ways to transform the food system. USDA is undertaking this effort to strengthen U.S. competitiveness with attention to our farmers, ranchers, producers, food processors, and other important links in the food supply chain. Under Secretary Vilsack’s leadership, USDA is helping to accelerate a transformation of our food system. Goals of this transformation include a fairer, more competitive, and transparent system where a greater share of the food dollar goes to those growing, harvesting, and preparing our food and one that promotes and strengthens the overall health and well-being of people, our land and water, and our economy. Growing consolidation in food and agriculture, the general health of our population, a growing climate

crisis, and the need to ensure racial justice and equity are important factors to take into consideration as USDA looks at strengthening food and agricultural supply chains. The deadline for comments is May 21, 2021. More information about how to submit comments in is available in the Notice. USDA touches the lives of all Americans each day in so many positive ways. In the Biden-Harris administration, USDA is transforming America’s food system with a greater focus on more resilient local and regional food production, ensuring access to healthy and nutritious food in all communities, building new markets and streams of income for farmers and producers using climate-smart food and forestry practices, making historic investments in infrastructure and cleanenergy capabilities in rural America, and committing to equity across the Department by removing systemic barriers and building a workforce more representative of America.

Congratulations!!! Meals on Wheels

continued from 1

The COVID-19 pandemic, which has disrupted so many charitable organizations and service programs over the past year, has impacted Meals on Wheels as well. In August, the Department of the Aging reported a number of regular volunteers were unable to assist in delivering meals, which led to a shortage of drivers. An urgent call for volunteers went out this past January as well. Perhaps as more and more residents are vaccinated for COVID-19, a greater number of volunteers will be willing to answer the call. Meals are delivered before noon Monday through Friday. Most volunteers deliver about 16 meals once a week, and it takes approximately one hour to complete a delivery route. Protocols are in place to ensure the safety of volunteers during meal delivery. Healthy, well-balanced meals can improve or maintain the health of homebound recipients, possibly even delaying or preventing nursing home placement. The Department of the Aging provides more than 500 nutritious meals daily throughout the county — for some recipients, it’s the only full meal they receive for the day. Without volunteers, the delivery of meals would be impossible. If you have a desire to help our county’s most vulnerable population, call today. Mileage reimbursement is available to drivers throughout the duration of the pandemic. Contact Ellen Herner at (716) 373-8032 or (800) 4622901 to help.

AUTO CORNER How to lower the cost of auto insurance

Auto insurance is a must-have for drivers. While it might seem hard to believe, as of 2019 there are still some places in the United States where auto insurance is not mandatory. Many people, even those in places where auto insurance is not mandatory, recognize the importance of being insured before they get behind the wheel. However, that doesn’t mean those same drivers would not like to cut the

cost of their auto insurance policies. A 2019 analysis from the online financial resource NerdWallet found that the average cost of car insurance in the United States is $1,621 per year. No matter where drivers live, chances are they would love to lower their auto insurance costs. While there’s no one-size-fits-all solution to cut auto insurance premiums, drivers can try various strategies to save money on their policies. · Raise your policy’s deductibles. Higher deductibles may sound scary to drivers, but raising the deductibles is a great way to lower the cost of auto insurance. The auto insurance provider Progressive notes that deductibles typically range from $100 to $2,000. A driver whose policy has a $100 deductible will pay considerably more on his policy per month than a driver with a higher deductible. In fact, the Insurance Information Institute notes that drivers who increase their deductibles from $200 to $1,000 can save 40 percent or more on their coverage costs. Drivers who choose this option should always be sure they have enough money in the bank to cover the cost of their deductibles. · Bundle your policies. Some drivers save money on their auto insurance policies by buying two or more types of insurance from the same provider. For example, homeowners may save money by buying homeowners insurance from their auto insurance providers or vice versa. · Research potential discounts. The III notes that many companies offer discounts to policyholders, even if those discounts are not necessarily promoted. Drivers can contact their insurance companies, or shop around with other providers, to ask about various discounts that can save them money on their policies. Anti-theft devices, defensive

driving courses, low annual mileage, and a strong credit record are just a handful of the many potential discounts drivers may be eligible for. Drivers can reduce the cost of their auto insurance policies in various ways, potentially saving themselves hundreds of dollars each year as a result.
