The five year anniversary of Super Storm Sandy has just occurred and in light of the recent hurricane that plagued the Caribbean, I believe we should take note of how we helped one another during Sandy. At that time I was work- ing as a social worker for Catholic Charities and I witnessed the residents of Canarsie, Coney Island and Far Rockaway trying to resume their lives. The lessons of Super Storm Sandy will remain, and we are always going to be looked to for assistance in helping overcome tragedies as this is a cornerstone of our great 59th As- sembly District.

    Nourishing NYCHA: Food Policy as a Tool for Improving the Well-Being of New York City’s Public Housing Residents February 2017 By Nevin Cohen, Nick Freudenberg, and Craig Willingham, CUNY Urban Food Policy Institute In the last few years, NYCHA has attracted the attention of policy makers, developers, elected officials and activists seeking new ways to improve living conditions, enhance public safety, repair an aging infrastructure, encourage economic development and promote health in the city-within-a-city that New York’s public housing constitutes. In this policy brief, we consider another aspect of NYCHA: the food its residents buy, prepare and eat and the role food plays in the health, environment and economy of the city’s NYCHA population. Our goal is to contribute new insights into how NYCHA can use food policy and programs to improve the well-being of its residents and make our city healthier, more self-sufficient, safer and more sustainable. More specifically, we hope to identify what NYCHA is doing now and what it 1-Credit: NYU-CUNY Prevention Research Center, Reference 4 55 West 125th Street, 6th Floor New York, NY 10027 (646) 364-9602 [email protected] www.cunyurbanfoodpolicy.org 1 could be doing in the coming years to reduce food insecurity, diet-related health conditions and promote food-related economic development, employment and sustainability.

The ommoC ditization of Starbucks Abstract [Excerpt] Is the coffee empire that Starbucks built beginning to fall? In a memo sent to the senior management of the company in February 2007, Howard Schultz warned that Starbucks was in danger of losing its romance and theater, which he believes are fundamental to the Starbucks experience. He noted, “Over the past ten years in order to achieve the growth, development, and scale necessary to go from less than 1,000 stores to 13,000 stores and beyond, we have had to make a series of decisions that, in retrospect, have led to the watering down of the Starbucks experience, and, what some might call the commoditization of our brand.” Calling the memo subject “The ommodC itization of the Starbucks Experience,” Schultz questioned corporate decisions to use automatic espresso machines and eliminate some in-store coffee grinding.

She announced that NYCHA and NAHRO have banded together to build a national movement of Public Housing Authorities (PHAs) and their advocates and partners. The coalition will lobby at the local, state and national levels for increased investment in public housing as a critical public health measure. Here is an excerpt of her address. I’ll be honest, when the President proposes a $6.2 billion cut to HUD’s budget and a reported two-thirds slash to the capital fund — you have to wonder if public housing will even have a tomorrow, let alone a “better” one. Luckily, where I’m from, we don’t take these kinds of threats lying down. Public housing authorities and housing administrators have embraced private investment not as a last resort but as a bridge to a 21st century business model.
