This spring, we’ve organized a restoration cleanup and marsh planting at Plum Beach, a section of Gateway National Recreation Area and a major spawning beach for the ancient horseshoe crab. In May and June during the high tides, the crabs come ashore to lay their eggs as they’ve done for millions of years. This provides a critical food source for the many species of shorebirds that are migrating through New York City. Small fi sh such as mummichogs and killifi sh join in the feast as well. JAMAICA BAY RESTORATION PROJECTS: Since 1986, the Littoral Society has been organizing annual PROTECTING OUR MARINE LIFE shoreline cleanups to document debris and create a greater public awareness of the issue. This September, we’ll conduct Home to many species of fi sh & wildlife, Jamaica Bay has been many cleanups around the bay as part of the annual International degraded over the past 100 years through dredging and fi lling, Coastal Cleanup. -

Annual Report 2020
BRAVE JUSTICE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 MELINDA KATZ DISTRICT ATTORNEY Queens District Attorney 125-01 Queens Boulevard Kew Gardens, NY 11415 TABLE OF CONTENTS 2 MESSAGE FROM DISTRICT ATTORNEY MELINDA KATZ A MESSAGE FROM DISTRICT ATTORNEY MELINDA KATZ 2020 was a year like no other. From the start, I knew it would take a steady hand to achieve brave justice and create a more equitable criminal justice system while keeping Queens’ communities safe. On day one, my team and I effectuated new policies, practices and structures designed to create the safest and fairest borough in the city. We immediately began navigating through the challenging implementation of New York State’s long awaited historic bail and discovery reform. I could not have anticipated the challenges to come: those already tumultuous waters deepened in just three months’ time, as a world-wide pandemic hit the city. And not long after, our city transformed yet again in the wake of historic protests and calls for meaningful police reform. This past year, we bravely rose above the turbulent waters. We began building bridges – bridges that will keep our communities safe while embracing new, progressive approaches toward prosecution and the criminal justice system. Inside this book, we will explore the remarkable bridge building we have started, in what has proven to be an unparalleled year: A bridge to Trust – where an emphasis is placed on new progressive leadership, staff training, and a demand for excellence and professionalism throughout a newly structured organization that is designed to further our mission to achieve brave justice. A bridge to Fairness – by instituting new policies that work to address racial and economic disparities, such as reducing prosecution of low-level offenses, utilizing alternatives to cash bail, reducing incarceration, making fair and just plea agreements, and providing more opportunities for rehabilitation and redemption from past violations. -

At the same time, the Membership & Contribution school is waiting with "bated breath" for information from the Board of Education on further cuts to the school's budget. Given the financial News & Events climate, the principal, Kim Bruno, is certain that there will be cuts, but New Art Classes the big question is how much. Freidheim Foundation 60th Reunion of M&A '50 In response, A&F has expanded its fundraising to help fill in current Film Screening at LG and anticipated gaps.
