Westchester leads in using funding to prevent homelessness

Westchester County is leading all counties in New York in using a new American Rescue Plan program to keep our most vulner able families and individuals from homelessness. Westchester has helped nearly 200 individuals and families find leases for permanent homes through the federal Emer gency Housing Voucher program. That’s more than any other county in the state, including all of New York City. Since the program got underway last November, 195 Westchester households have moved in to permanent housing or are scheduled to move in by September 1.

County board celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month

On Monday, the Westchester County Board of Legislators commemorated their annual Hispanic Heritage Month cele bration with a virtual ceremony lauding the efforts of two Latina powerhouses: Martha Mercedes of Yonkers and Carola Otero Bracco of Mount Kisco.

Board Chair Catherine Borgia welcomed everyone to the board’s annual observance of Hispanic Heritage Month, which officially begins on Thursday, Sept. 15 and runs until Oct. 15.

She explained, “September 15th marks the date when five Latin American countries — Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua — all earned their independence from Spain, followed by Mexico on September 16 and Chile on September 18. The month-long celebration continues with many types of festivities and celebrations, although the majority of Latin American countries ac tually commemorate their independence

on other dates throughout the year.”

“This year’s theme, ‘Unidos: Inclu sivity for a Stronger Nation,’ encourages us to ensure that all voices are represented and welcomed to help build stronger com munities and a stronger nation.”

Majority Whip Jose Alvarado presented the first proclamation saying, “I am so pleased to recognize Mar tha Mercedes as an inspiration for the Hispanic community and to present her with this proclamation … Even with her busy career in the hotel industry, Martha still finds time to volunteer and work with the Park Hill community that she so loves. She has contributed and distrib uted toys and meals for needy families during the holidays, and in the midst of the pandemic, she volunteered giving out COVID tests at St. Bartholomew Church and donated 100 lunches cooked by her, and her husband, Martin, to Saint John’s Hospital. Martha has served for 15 years

on the Park Hill Residents Association as Treasurer. Between her professional accomplishments and her generous spirit, she is truly a mentor for the community.”

Ms. Mercedes thanked Legislator Alvarado for the honor saying, “When deciding to move to Westchester 20 years ago, I chose the Park Hill area of Yonkers. Logistically, it was a great choice for my commute to work, but the diversity of the different cultures is what most attracted me to the community … Service to the Hispanic and other minority communi ties has always been something have I believed in”.

“As a Latina who came from humble beginnings and who worked diligently in the corporate world -- where there were little opportunities for Latinos and fewer for women -- I have tried to give back. Throughout my career of over 50 years as

County Executive George Latimer said: “ When the COVID pandemic hit, we had grave concerns about its impact on people being able to stay in their homes, especially those who are most vulnerable. By staying ahead of the curve and using all available resources to keep people from homelessness, we’re not only preventing human tragedy for those individuals and families, but we’re reducing the social and economic costs of homelessness for everyone in Westchester.”Westchester’s success is a re sult of diligent advanced planning by the county’s Department of Social Services and the county’s partner in the program, Westhab. And the county’s proactive re sponse to processing applications has put Westchester in a position to help even more people than an ticipated as additional federal ap plication slots become available. There are currently 76 additional referrals completed on the waitlist just in case more applications becomeDepartmentavailable.ofSocial Services

Commissioner Leonard G. Townes said: “When we got word that this program was being discussed in Congress, we didn’t wait. Even before it was passed we had selected a partner, began devel oping criteria for those who might qualify, and worked to identify people who could be helped by the program as well as landlords who would be interested in leas es. When final approvals came, we were able to hit the ground running. This is a program that focuses on people most at risk of homelessness and in need of safe, stable homes like domestic violence survivors. For them, time is of the essence, and so it was for us as Latimerwell.”said: “In the end, government programs are only as good as our ability to execute on them. I want to thank Com missioner Townes and the staff at DSS and Westhab for their example of proactive leadership in leveraging federal funds to help County residents most in need of help.”The Emergency Housing Voucher (EHV) program is avail able through the American Res cue Plan Act (ARPA). It focuses on individuals and families who are homeless, at-risk of home lessness, fleeing, or attempting to flee, domestic violence, dating vio lence, sexual assault, stalking, or human trafficking, or were recently homeless or have a high risk of housing instability. Participants live in housing of their choice while paying approximately 30 percent of their monthly income on rent. The remaining rent is paid directly to landlords through the voucher program, which protects landlords by ensuring payment of that portion of the rent.

The Board declared Sept. 15, 2022 “Martha Mercedes Day” in Westchester County.

Legislator Erika Pierce presented the proclamation to first generation Bolivian-American, Carola Otero Bracco. She said, “While I am always proud to be from District 2, tonight I am particularly proud because Mount Kisco and District 2 are home to Carola Otero Bracco, one of this year’s remarkable Hispanic Heritage honorees. Tonight, I am so pleased to share Carola’s accomplishments, her passion for empowering immigrant families, her advocacy work on behalf of the educational and economic devel opment of immigrants, and her many contributions to the people of Westchester County.”

Bracco graciously accepted the honor saying, “I have worked with many of you over several years and you have championed important changes at the County level and advocated for critical changes at the State level. Even as external forces challenge the immigrant community, our shared commitment to integration and inclusion is multi-faceted and is more relevant than ever.”

“People who have made the courageous and difficult decision to leave their home countries and families, wheth er because of violence, persecution, economic distress or other reasons, deserve to be treated with dignity and respect … Our partnership with the elected officials in this County is an important example of how community-based organizations and elected officials can work together to ensure that all community members have the opportunity to succeed, regardless of where they were born.”

The Board declared Sept. 24, 2022 “Carola Otero Bracco Day” in Westchester County.

LMC Media announces collaboration with Mamaroneck Cinemas

LMC Media announced that it will be partnering with the historic Mama roneck Cinemas for its Oct. 20 gala.

LMC Media will be holding its Annual Gala on Oct. 20 both online and in-per son. They will be honoring local com munity leader Jefferson Meighan at that time. The theme of the event is “Holly wood on the Sound.” LMC Executive Director Matt Sullivan explained, “The Sound Shore area is rich in filmmaking history. To showcase the storytelling expertise of LMC Media, we will create an original film that will chronicle the history of filmmaking in this communi ty.” Featured in the film will be notable figures who got their cinematic starts in Larchmont and Mamaroneck.

The timing of the Gala allowed for an opportune partnership with the newly re-opened, historic Mamaroneck Cinemas to screen the premiere of the film as part of the Gala celebration.

The Mamaroneck Playhouse originally opened as a single-screen balcony theater in 1925. In 2014, the theater closed and is now owned by Harvey Elgart. After extensive renovations, the theater re-opened in June of this year. “We are hosting the Gala at the theater at no charge to honor Jeff Meighan and all the hard and important work LMC

Media does for the community,” said Elgart.The evening’s honoree, Jefferson Meighan, Esq. is a lifelong resident of Westchester County, living most of his life in the Sound Shore area. He is being celebrated for his leadership in the Sound Shore community and for his philanthropic work, Board service, and volunteer roles which exemplify his commitment to community. Meighan was a co-founder of the Washington ville Housing Alliance and has held Board leadership roles in the local Ro tary, Bar Association, and Mamaroneck Public Library. He has been on the Board of LMC Media for 8 years and has served as president since 2015.

The LMC Media Gala raises funds to support its work with the residents and municipalities of Larchmont, Mama roneck, and Rye Neck. LMC Media re ceives most of its funding through cable franchise fees. These fees have been steadily declining due to residents’ use of alternative television and streaming services to traditional cable television (also known as cord-cutting). The Gala raises needed funds to replace these reduced fees. Past honorees include Congresswoman Nita Lowey and local philanthropist Sunny Goldberg.

IGT Donates advanced technology to Boys & Girls Club of New Rochelle

On Monday, Sept. 19, leaders from International Game Technology, IGT, and the Boys & Girls Club of New Rochelle gathered to celebrate IGT’s donation of state-of-the-art computer equipment and technology to enhance the nonprofit’s STEM program. The celebration featured remarks by representatives from IGT and the Boys & Girls Club of New Rochelle, as well as state Assemblymember Steve Otis, New Rochelle City Councilwoman Martha Lopez-Hanratty and New Rochelle Schools Supt. Jonathan Raymond.

IGT donated the technology through its global After School Advantage program, which is devoted to providing young people with access to technology in a safe, nurturing, afterschool environment. The donation of an iMac, 10 Chromebooks, a 72” Promethean ActivPanel™in teractive display, and furniture will help advance the Boys & Girls Club’s STEM Room Initiative. The STEM Room Initiative helps close education opportunity gaps for the youth of New Rochelle by providing access to innovative and creative programs and resources that develop creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills appli cable to future STEM careers.

“With IGT’s support, we are able to expose our members to STEM programming and activi ties as a complementary resource to our school district to support our members’ academic suc cess,” said William Iannuzzi, Boys & Girls Club of New Rochelle Director of Clubhouses and Secondary School Programming. “Boys & Girls Clubs promote learning and set a high value on education. The support from IGT will support our vision of ensuring every Club member graduates from high school ready for post-secondary edu cation and a 21st-century career.”

“As a global leader in gaming technology, we recognize the importance of STEM programs and commend the Boys & Girls Club of New Rochelle for introducing the next generation of leaders to key skills and future opportunities in STEM,” said Paul Stelmaszyk, IGT New York Account Development Manager. “For more than 20 years, IGT’s After School Advantage program has helped thousands of young people have access to powerful combinations of the most advanced technology and learning resources. This donation to the Boys & Girls Club of New Rochelle will allow students to continue explor

ing STEM careers and set them up for future success.”Founded in 1929, the Boys & Girls Club of New Rochelle has been an integral part of the New Rochelle community, offering its youth safe and achievement-driven programming focused on the whole child, encompassing academics, mental wellness, fitness, leadership, and civics. Today, it serves nearly 3,000 youth and 1,000 members each year at various school sites and two clubhouse locations, offering them a safe place to learn and grow, ongoing relationships with caring adult professionals, life-enhancing programs, and character development experienc es, and hope and opportunity.

As a global leader in the lottery and gam ing industry, IGT has been promoting both the advancement of tech literacy and STEAM opportunities by providing young people access to technology since the After School Advantage program was founded in 1999. IGT donates an assortment of computers, online technolo gy, computer software, furniture, and volunteer hours to the non-profits it partners with for each after school program.

Quilts to be unveiled for WCA’s early childhood campaign

Over the past year, the Westchester Children’s Association, WCA, has collected hundreds of quilt squares from Westchester County and beyond. Their Hope Quilt Project created quilting opportu nities for schools and other groups to participate in WCA’s awareness campaign on the importance of early childhood supports. In addition to the hun dreds of squares created by the Board and staff at WCA, as well as supporters and donors, students from School 30 in Yonkers, Westchester Reform Temple Early Childhood Center in Scarsdale, and The Lakeland School District Lincoln Tutus Elementary School, participated in the creation of theEarlysquares.childhood home visiting services provide individualized support and guidance to families with children ages 0-5 in the home setting and provide connections to needed services. The lack of program capacity and funding in Westchester and New York state has caused eligible families to go without this critical resource. In Westchester County, 95.2% of eligible children are not receiving home visiting services; these programs are effec tive in decreasing abuse and neglect, increasing school readiness, and improving maternal and child health outcomes. Westchester Children’s Associ ation advocates for the expansion of home visiting programs at the county and state level so that every eligible family can have access.

To bring greater awareness to this important issue, WCA initiated The Hope Quilt campaign in November of 2021. Several quilts were recently completed and three will be unveiled at a special event to be held Wednesday, Sept. 28 at 9:30 a.m. at the Westchester Children’s Museum at Playland Park in Rye. The public is invited to attend.

“Early childhood home visiting programs provide essential services to families to foster the healthy development of babies,” says WCA Executive Director Allison Lake. “But because of the lack of funding, only four percent of new parents and their infants who need the support of trained professionals can participate in these programs. The Hope Quilt Project was created to enlist the community in creating quilt patches with messages or pictures of hope, and engaged vol unteers and sponsors to support the funding and execution of the campaign.”

Thanks to The Village Square Quilters in Scars dale, all of the collected squares have been com bined into five quilts varying in size from 70 x 70, with the largest approximately 85 x 90. Three of the quilts will be unveiled at the event on Sept. 28. The three quilts will remain on display as a testament to the communal effort made to provide extra support to help infants and young parents and the others will be shared around the county with home visiting agencies and county buildings.

WE HAVE A NEW NAME. AND A LOT MORE.

NewYork-Presbyterian Lawrence Hospital is now NewYork-Presbyterian Westchester with a comprehensive cancer center, sports medicine services, and introducing Och Spine to the region. With more on the way.

A little flexibility

We may be through the worst of what the COVID-19 pandemic has wrought over the last few years, but that doesn’t mean that the world we live in now is com pletely devoid of the specter of the pandemic. But in some ways, the lessons we learned during the hard times we’ve lived through are more important than ever, and we’re seeing that first hand in the high school sports world today.

During the pandemic, we kept on hearing about the impor tance of being able to “pivot.”

Whether it was adapting to new CDC guidelines or state laws, responding to surges, or simply learning how to “go with the flow,’ the idea of flexibility because an especially important one. But now that our world is (mostly) back to

normal, we’re seeing that nimble ness is still an important part of every day Perhapslife.nobody has felt this new reality more than athletic directors, coaches and stu dents-athletes.Sincegetting back to “normal”, high school sports has been one of the areas that seems funda mentally different. With trans portation crunches and official shortages rampant—not only in the state but in the country as well—it seems that being adapt able is more important than ever.

It used to be that if I was scheduled to cover a 4:30 p.m. game on a Thursday, that game would—more often than not—take place at 4:30 p.m. on that Thurs day. But bus/ref shortages have made those assurances a thing of the past and the schedule has been an absolute nightmare as a result.Just last week, I had my Friday planned out; I was going to cover

the first half Eastchester and Somers—a rematch of last year’s Class A boys soccer finals—be fore heading over to Mamaroneck at 6 p.m. to catch the Tigers’ foot ball team tangle with John Jay.

I wasn’t at Eastchester too long before realizing that Somers’ bus troubles meant that they wouldn’t be getting to the field until at least 5 p.m., so I cut my losses and headed over to Mama roneck to ensure I didn’t miss a snap of the Friday night game.

Turns out I didn’t have to leave as early as I did because John Jay had bus trouble too and that game went off about 40 minutes lateButanyway.asinconvenient as this was for me, I was amazed at how the coaches and administrators handled it. The mindset was uni form; see the problem, adapt, and respond.Itwas something everyone learned the hard way during the COVID-19 years and it’s nice to

see that the skills we needed to use on a daily basis back then are still being used today.

After being faced with a cataclysmic shutdown; I think a 30 minute delay is a manageable

inconvenience.It’salljusta matter of perspec tive.

On Sept. 16, Mamaroneck’s game against John Jay was delayed due to the Patriots’ bus troubles. In today’s sports landscape, minor inconveniences like that are everyday occurrences.

Garnets fall to Falcons, eye bounce-back

• Isabel DiPrima had a goal and an assist for the Falcons

• Rye’s Karenna Chandler had 7 saves

• Rye is currently 4-1 Game Notes

By MIKE SMITH Sports Editor

It took nearly three weeks into the season for the Rye girls soccer team to suffer its first loss, but the Garnets found themselves on the wrong side of a 3-0 score last Saturday, falling to the perennial powers from Alber tusIsabelMagnus.DiPrima led the way for the Falcons, tallying a goal and an assist, while Maggie Murphy and Grace Burns also found the net as Magnus came away with a decisive victory. Karenna Chandler made seven saves for the Garnets.

The defeat was Rye’s first through the first five games of the season, as the Gar nets are coming off a 2021 campaign that ended in double-overtime of the Class A finals against a game Clarkstown North squad. Although that Garnet team

graduated a host of talented seniors, Rye has not lacked for returning talent including players like Maddy Walsh—a mainstay on the varsity ros ter—and Bowyn Brown who notched her share of huge goals last Albertusyear.Magnus, on the other hand, appears to be the dominant force in all of Section I. At 5-0 on the year, they have outscored their op ponents 21-0 so far this fall.

The Garnets were set to take on another undefeated team—Somers (6-0)—on Monday, Sept. 19, but the game was canceled due to inclement weather. They will take on the Tuskers in a rescheduled game on Oct. 6. The rest of the schedule doesn’t show any let up for Rye, however, as their next test will be on Sept. 21 against a Lakeland team that is also 4-1. Lakeland had

one game last week, topping Peekskill 4-0. This weekend, the Gar nets will play back-to-back games against Class B

stalwart Byram Hills (4-1-1) and Class AA Mamaroneck (0-4-1). The Bobcats could prove to be a tricky foe, having dispatched Class A

Eastchester in a 2-1 game on Sept. 19.

Maddy Walsh battles with a Magnus player for possession on Sept. 17. Walsh and the Garnets fell 3-0 to the Falcons.
