Move to Include spotlights people of differing abilities and disability through television specials, radio programs, news, special events, and social media. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting recognized the importance of the Move to Include model and awarded WXXI a grant to expand efforts to five additional public media stations.

WXXI On-line...... www.wxxi.org As you saw on the cover, this month WXXI takes our Move to Include initiative to a national level. We launched Move to Include in Rochester with The Golisano Foundation six years ago with the goal to break stereotypes of individuals with disabilities. Now, thanks to a grant from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, WXXI is leading a pilot project to expand this initiative in five communities across the country. WFYI (Indianapolis), OPB (Oregon), WGCU (Southwest Florida), WCNY (Syracuse, NY), and Iowa Public Television will work to build more inclusive communities by inspiring and motivating people to embrace different abilities and include all people in every aspect of community life. Through television, radio, news, special events, and social media the stations will spotlight people with differing abilities and disability issues for positive change. They will work to organize community partnerships, acquire and create content for television and radio, and provide outreach, engagement, and promotion for the initiative.

People with disabilities make up our single largest minority in this country. We are proud to expand Move to Include into these five new regions, using public media’s many platforms to promote equity and inclusion. To learn more about what our partner stations are doing in their communities, visit movetoinclude.us.

Finally, if you made a pledge during our June membership campaign, we thank you. Your support enables us to provide the news, talk, programming, educational resources, and music that our community relies on.

Stay safe,

They are committed to conserving land in perpetuity – beyond our lifetimes and for the beneft of future generations. WXXI connects with Andrew Zepp, Executive Director of Finger Lakes Land Trust, to learn more about their efforts. Q. Finger Lakes Land Trust recently celebrated 30 years of conservation in the region. What has been one of the most rewarding projects? The protection of Grimes Glen in Naples was particularly special. This iconic gorge has been used by the public for generations but was at risk of being sold and having access terminated. We partnered with Ontario County to acquire the Glen, protect it through a perpetual conservation easement, and open it as a county park. Today, residents and visitors alike can still cool off on a summer day at this local attraction. Q. Where do your greatest concerns lie for the Finger Lakes region? Recent outbreaks of toxic algae and declining water quality in some areas is a huge concern. The EVENTS lakes are the lifeblood of our region. To address this issue, the Land Trust is working with lake associations and government conservation agencies to protect streams and wetlands and also to reduce nutrient runoff from the surrounding landscape. Q. Can you tell us a little bit about GoFingerLakes.org? GoFingerLakes.org was launched to help connect people with nature and opportunities for outdoor recreation. Residents and visitors alike are using the site and we have received a lot of positive feedback. While some use it solely as a source of information, others have become involved in our conservation efforts. Q. Can you explain what Treks & Talks is? Talks & Treks is a region-wide series of educational programs at some of our premier natural areas. These are offered at no charge and are led by expert volunteer naturalists. Due to the pandemic, this program is temporarily on hold but we look forward to resuming these trips once it is safe to do so. Q. One personal recommendation for must-do activity in the Finger Lakes this summer? Visit one of our gorges! Whether at one of our state parks or land trust nature preserves, this is a great way to beat the heat and experience nature. Opportunities range from improved trails suitable for all ages to rugged adventures that are off the beaten path. Visit GoFingerLakes.org to learn about the best places to go.
