CEO Update: October 27, 2023

East Hill Foundation

I want to thank the East Hill Foundation for their generous help with our Cribs for Kids Program. Thanks to them, we can now buy 77 Graco Pack 'N Plays and 154 sheet sets for families in the Southern Tier. Our program's goal is to make sure babies are safe during sleep and reduce sudden infant death syndrome. I'm very thankful to the East Hill Foundation for their amazing support. We really appreciate it.

​Lead Hazard Capacity Building Grant

Yesterday, I was able to attend a press briefing for the award of $2.5 million to the Cattaraugus County Health Department (CCHD) from The Office of Lead Hazard Control and Healthy Homes through the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development. Through this grant, CCHD will partner with the Allegany County Health Department and Operation Warm Harts to maximize the number of children under the age of six who are being protected from lead poisoning. Congratulations to all involved in this program to ensure the children in our community are safer!
