I am working with the Government Relations team at Community Service Society (CSS).  CSS is a non-profit organization working to combat poverty in New York.  On February 28th we, along with the 32BJ union (and other unions), are hosting a forum at Riverside Church with all of the mayoral candidates for 2013.  This forum will provide a platform for the candidates to announce their ideas on what low income New Yorkers say are the most important issues they want the next mayor to address. These include creating more jobs, reducing crime, drugs, and guns, investing more in education, making housing more affordable, and health care. The goal of the forum is to learn what the candidates will do if elected to address these issues that matter most to those who have been left out of the city's prosperity.  The event is expected to bring in a lot of media and public. We are hoping for many students to attend as well. I'd love for Hunter students to be represented!  If not you, who would be the best person to mail a flyer to at the school of public heath?  

Please refer to Cranes article on this upcoming event:

Thank you for all of your help!

All the Best,
