PUBLIC POLICY ADVOCACY WEEKEND February 13/14, 2021
Advocacy Issue: Funding for NOURISH NEW YORK initiative

The COVID-19 pandemic has hit everyone hard.

In particular, the pandemic has focused a spotlight on two vulnerable groups in New York State: farmers and our neighbors who are food insecure – many are newly hungry due to job losses caused by the pandemic. The Diocesan Public Policy Committee invites us to join in helping both on Diocesan Public Policy Advocacy Weekend (February 13/14) by calling on state leaders to allocate $50 million to continue the NOURISH NEW YORK initiative during state fiscal year 2021-2022.
