Thank you @Elmcor for organizing the event. Meeting with community members, & CBOs while introducing @LaGuardia programs was a fantastic opportunity. Students from @LaGuardia #Nutrition and Culinary had an opportunity to speak about their program to the attendees.

It wasn’t just a parade that had us in the streets though. From building supportive housing to supporting our young people in need of mental health services, @Elmcor does incredible work. And it throws an incredible block party too. Thanks for having me on Saturday!

Everyone deserves safe, affordable housing. It’s a basic need. I was proud to join @NYChousing to break ground on 55 new affordable homes in Sunnyside, Queens. The housing crisis has impacted every community & I’m glad to see Queens taking action.

Congrats to @Elmcor @LemleWolff, Sarana Development and the rest of the design & financing partners that broke ground this week on a new 55 affordable housing project in Queens. When built these 55 homes will offer dignity, stability & a strong foundation for those future NYers
