  • THE STATE of EARLY LEARNING in NEW YORK TOO MANY YOUNG LEARNERS STILL LEFT out Access to Full-Day Pre-K and Child Care by Legislative District
    BRIEFING GUIDE THE STATE OF EARLY LEARNING IN NEW YORK TOO MANY YOUNG LEARNERS STILL LEFT OUT Access to Full-Day Pre-K and Child Care By Legislative District What New York Leaders Need to Do Now Recommendations for 2019-20 Enacted Budget Acknowledgments Preparation of this report was truly a team effort by the Ready for Kindergarten, Ready for College Campaign including Betty Holcomb, Center for Children’s Initiatives, Marina Marcou O’Malley, the Alliance for Quality Education, Dorothy (Dede) Hill, the Schuyler Center for Analysis and Advocacy, and Pete Nabozny, The Children’s Agenda for valuable data analysis and editing. Special thanks to Jennifer March, executive director, Citizens’ Committee for Children and to the Committee’s data and research team, including Marija Drobnjak, and Sophia Halkitis, for the providing data on subsidized child care in New York City. In addition, we want to thank the National Alliance for Early Success, the New York Community Trust, Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Foundation and The Partnership for America’s Children for their support. THE STATE OF EARLY LEARNING IN NEW YORK TOO MANY YOUNG LEARNERS STILL LEFT OUT | 2 OPPORTUNITIES DENIED Working Families And The State’s Youngest Learners Left Out HIGHLIGHTS • The Governor’s proposal to add just $15 million for pre-K for 3- and 4- year olds, is unlikely to add even the 3,000 new seats he promises, and falls dismally short of rising need and unmet demand. More than 100 districts gave formal notice of interest in adding pre-K last October. • 80,000 four-year-olds across the state – mostly outside New York City – still have no full-day pre-K.

First, we will take this opportunity to reiterate our strong support for the PAVE-NY and BRIDGE-NY programs enacted as part of the 2016-17 state budget. These initiatives have provided invaluable funding for additional road paving, and bridge and culvert work for both the state and local systems, and we will look forward to their continuation this year and in future years. Nevertheless, as we continue to address the sustainable future of New York’s locally maintained transportation infrastructure, we must once again highlight the Consolidated Highway Improvement Program (CHIPS), which as you know makes the key difference for so many local communities, economies, governments, motorists, and taxpayers throughout the state.

  • June 8, 2021 Howard Zucker, M.D., J.D. Commissioner, New York State Department of Health Corning Tower Empire State Plaza Albany, NY 12237
    June 8, 2021 Howard Zucker, M.D., J.D. Commissioner, New York State Department of Health Corning Tower Empire State Plaza Albany, NY 12237 Dear Commissioner Zucker: We are respectfully writing in support of essential funding for the 553 New York State adult care facility and assisted living residences (ACFs/ALRs) to offset a fraction of their pandemic related losses. Statewide, ACFs/ALRs care for approximately 52,000 New Yorkers, many of whom are among the most vulnerable to COVID-19 - the average resident 85 years of age, requiring assistance with at least three activities of daily living, and having multiple co-morbidities. To protect residents and staff from the pandemic, New York’s senior living providers have incurred hundreds of millions of dollars in COVID-19 related expenses. These expenses go beyond PPE and infection control supplies, to include well-deserved hero pay, monies for additional staff, and the provision of the weekly COVID testing mandated by the Department. In addition, the temporary discontinuation of admissions and limitations on visitation have resulted in substantial revenue losses for these facilities. In total, the estimated losses exceed $1 billion for the industry. Since May of 2020, New York has required ACFs and ALRs to test all staff for COVID-19 on a weekly basis. While this has been an important protocol to ensure the safety of both residents and staff, the costs associated with this mandate were substantial and completely unanticipated. The current industry cost estimate of this mandate is now over $100 million, and increasing weekly. We are very concerned that, unlike other provider types, ACFs/ALRs have not received State funding to offset even a portion of these expenses.
