NYC is in the first phase of reopening today, June 8th. Businesses that may start or expand operations include retail, construction, manufacturing and wholesale trade. More information available here. GetFoodNYC CITY FUNDING FOR PANTRIES: The Administration and Council’s initiative to distribute $25 million to pantries across the City is underway. The trusted umbrella organizations, including City Harvest and Food Bank NYC, have begun reaching out to local pantries to supply in-kind assistance and cash grants to meet their needs, which can include food, staffing, and operational expenses. BUSINESS EMERGENCY GRANT PROGRAM: Among the peaceful demonstrations, protests, and vigils the City has seen over this past week, some neighborhoods unfortunately saw individuals using protest as a cover for violence and crime. Yesterday, the Mayor announced an emergency grant program for small businesses whose storefronts were impacted by looting. Thanks to $500,000 in initial funds from SOMOS Community Care, the City will begin providing grants to small businesses in the Bronx of up to $10,000. The City is continuing to raise funds to provide relief, as well as providing legal and technical support to affected businesses citywide. Businesses can get more information by calling 1-888-SBS-4NYC (1-88-727-4692). From the Mayor’s Office Expanding Cure Violence: The City is expanding Cure Violence to four additional precincts: • 43rd Precinct in Soundview, Bronx • 103rd Precinct in Jamaica, Queens • 71st Precinct in Crown Heights, Brooklyn • 69th Precinct in Canarsie, Brooklyn With the addition of these sites, Cure Violence will now cover the 20 precincts with the highest rates of gun violence. As part of this expansion, we are increasing our Crisis Management System budget by $10 million. This funding will help in staffing and create new sites and support community organizers and credible messengers who break cycles of violence in their neighborhoods. More Testing for Hard-Hit Communities: The Mayor announced two Mobile Testing Trucks began operating yesterday at NYCHA’s Monroe Houses in Soundview in the Bronx. They will be heading to Queens Borough Hall tomorrow. Two Housing Works sites have opened in zip code 11208. The City is offering testing kits to all hospitals and hospital systems, and will immediately send 3,000 Made in NYC test kits to Staten Island hospitals. Additional H+H testing sites: • 4002 Fort Hamilton Parkway, Brooklyn – opened 6/10 • 6315 14th Avenue, Brooklyn – opening 6/11 And, community provider sites have opened up at the following locations: • BronxCare: 3 in zip code 10457 • Morris Heights Health Center: 5 + mobile van in zip code 10453 • Boriken Neighborhood Health Center: 1 in zip code 10035 • Damian Family Care Centers: 3 in zip code 10454 • VIP Community Services: 1 in zip code 10460 Busways and Bus Lanes: The City will implement 20 miles of new busways and bus lanes that will serve nearly 750,000 daily riders. This will enable faster travel, and more frequent buses will help to increase social distance. Five new busways have been planned, using 14th Street as the model, and the 14th Street Busway itself will be made permanent. • The City will establish 3.5 miles of new busways with a capacity for 596,000 daily rides, at the following locations: • June: Main Street, Queens • July: Jamaica Avenue, Queens and 5th Avenue, Manhattan • August: Jay Street, Brooklyn • October: 181st Street, Manhattan • The City will establish 16.5 miles of new bus lanes, adding a total of 148,000 daily rides, at the following locations: • June: East 14th Street, Manhattan and 149th Street, Bronx • July: Hylan Boulevard, Staten Island • August: Merrick Boulevard, Queens Coping with Trauma: Working with 270 front-line community and faith-based organizations at the neighborhood level, NYC will reach 10,000 New Yorkers in our hardest-hit neighborhoods from July to December to offer mental health resources. The City will train staff at these organizations to help their communities cope through virtual trainings on mental health disaster response and coping for community members. Restaurant Revitalization Program: This City’s Restaurant Revitalization Program will support unemployed and underemployed restaurant workers using $3 million from NYC Opportunity, Mayor’s Fund to Advance NYC and One Fair Wage, and it will focus on the 27 communities hardest hit by COVID-19. Grants of up to $30,000 each will subsidize wages of $20 per hour for at least 6 weeks, supporting 1,000 workers in 100 restaurants initially selected, with preference given to those who offer free or reduced cost meals to New Yorkers affected by COVID-19. Additionally, all restaurants must commit to a $15 minimum wage on top of tips within 5 years of returning to regular business. Youth Programming: Learn, Create, Prepare: NYC Youth The NYC Young Men’s Initiative in partnership with the Department of Probation’s Neighborhood Opportunity Network (NeON) has initiated three programs for the summer: 1. NeON Summer: This program will 2,700 young people a paid 6-8 week remote-learning summer immersion with a focus on employment readiness, career exploration and mentorship, social and civic leadership, financial literacy and more. 2.

CEO aims to help break cycles of intergenerational poverty, an enormous challenge that will only grow harder during the economic downturn that is upon us. But we will not abandon the promising progress we have made in rewarding personal initiative and reaffirming hope. From the beginning, we have known that there are no short-term solutions to poverty. But over the long-term, government policies can help drive standards of living to new heights – if we confront problems traditionally associated with poverty, including: unemployment, teen pregnancy, early education difficulties, poor housing conditions, low high school graduation rates, and poor access to regular health care. In New York City, CEO’s innovative new initiatives are helping us make great strides in these important areas, and across America, other cities and states are also making progress.

The seamless knit that ties these distinct cultures and transforms them into shared communities is what defines the character of Queens. The borough’s diverse population continues to steadily grow. Foreign-born residents represent nearly half of Queens’ population3. Traditional immigrant gateways like Sunnyside, Woodside, Jackson Heights, Elmhurst, Corona, and Flushing are now communities with the highest foreign-born population in the entire city4. Yet, the immigrant population remains largely underserved, primarily due to linguistic and cultural barriers. Residents with limited English proficiency now represent 28% of the Borough5, indicating a need for a wide range of social service support and language access to City services. At the same time, Queens’ communities are quickly outpacing the available housing stock. Already, Community District 3 is the most severely overcrowded Community District in the entire city; Community District 4 is the second most severely overcrowded6. Low-income households are left with few alternatives to living in overcrowded conditions.

  • Film in Broklyn
    d Brooklyn Takes Over Prime Time In the last decade New York City has seen a boom in its film production. Recently Brooklyn has become more popular with production studios and become the backdrop for popular shows such as "Girls", "Blue Bloods", and "Gotham." While all five boroughs are utilized for filming, Manhattan and Brooklyn are the most popular (Dunne, 2015). One of the major factors behind this influx of filming in Brooklyn and all over NYC, is the generous financial incentives offered by New York State. However, this has led to constant filmmaking, especially in Brooklyn, where it has become a nuisance to its citizens. With the film industry generating $7 billion in revenue for NYC as of 2015, filmmaking will only get more predominant throughout New York and Brooklyn. (“Office History,” n.d.). "MANHATTAN HAS ALWAYS TOLD THE STORY OF ASPIRATIONS AND WEALTH. NOW BROOKLYN IS TELLING THE STORY OF A REALLY UPWARDLY MOBILE PERSON" (THE NEW YORK TIMES) Figure 1: Filmed in NYC. This image showcases the most popular areas for filming in NYC. With Green point and Williamsburg, Brooklyn being some of the most utilized. Tax Incentives New York is commonly used to film television shows and movies due to “OF THE $420 MILLION, THERE IS the tax incentives provided by the State.
