  • University Integrations Public Comments Batch 2 (5/27/21
    DATE PLAN GROUP OTHER COMMENT / SOURCE INFORMATION NAME (GROUP) 5/27/2021 5:56 Northeast Staff, I am very much supportive of the integration. I think it will provide needed changes in structure given the new climate of higher Ed, along with Plan Alumni/ increased opportunities for students throughout the triad. Donor However, I was so disappointed to hear that Recreation Management was not listed in the program array. I believe this is a mistake and does not support the working needs of PA (as almost all of our graduates stay in PA). These individuals staff YMCAs, youth programs, state parks, event centers, venues, and so much more. This program provides skills and necessary curriculum to make students successful in these fields. This program is filled with students who are truly passionate about their coursework and the prospect of bettering the future. This is the only program of its kind to be offered within the triad and Lock Haven University is the ideal location. With hard decisions to be made, I don’t doubt that we can take a harder look at programs and efficiencies, but I ask you to reconsider eliminating the Recreation Management program. I am confident by eliminating this program you will be doing this triad and the state a disservice. 5/27/2021 7:40 West Plan Alumni/ Auxiliary Please define Brand Identity" will remain in tact needs defined with examples and how the alumni can identify with that definition. Change is Donor, employee tough and specifics to how it relates to alumni (plaid, boro, logos, EUP, traditions) would be helpful.

  • April 21, 2020 Secretary Teresa Miller Pennsylvania Department Of
    April 21, 2020 Secretary Teresa Miller Pennsylvania Department of Human Services 625 Forster Street Harrisburg, PA 17120 Dear Secretary Miller, Re: Safe Food Purchasing Options for SNAP Recipients As legislators, we understand the economic precariousness of our constituents since the onset of the COVID-19 outbreaks and that it has increased the need for people to access the SNAP benefits program to ensure food security. We understand the need for SNAP recipients to have safe access to groceries which would include access to online grocery shopping and delivery services. More than one-third of SNAP households include a family member who is an older adult or someone with a disability and many of these families rely on ride-sharing or public transportation options to go grocery shopping. Leaving their homes to make in-person payments or even using neighborhood volunteer-based buddy systems further increases the risk of contracting COVID-19 for an already at-risk population. We support DHS in submitting a waiver that allows SNAP benefit users to complete online grocery orders (and allow for home delivery service) so that they may adhere to the COVID-19 response guidelines outlined by the state government. This waiver will be a good start to supporting our most vulnerable population. Additionally, we encourage you to look ahead to broadening the options and abilities for using and accepting SNAP benefits. From across the Commonwealth, we hear concerns about the safety and security of local food growers and producers who keep our food supply safe and steady and the financial security of these industries that are considered essential.

  • Copy of Letter to Administration Re Frack Public Health Study (002).Docx
    March 17th, 2021 The Honorable Tom Wolf Governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania 508 Main Capitol Building Harrisburg, PA 17120 RE: Request for Action Dear Governor Wolf, Thank you for your recent support of the Delaware River Basin Commission’s efforts to protect our natural resources and drinking water supply. Please consider this correspondence as a formal request for your immediate action in response to the ongoing harm to the public’s health and well-being due to hydraulic fracturing. On March 4, 2021, the Environmental Health News published the results of an illuminating investigation that links hydraulic fracturing operations and exposure to toxic chemicals. This pilot study included five families residing in Westmoreland and Washington Counties, all living within miles of multiple hydraulic fracturing wells, pipelines, and compressor stations. Each family was monitored over 9 weeks through scientific data collection of urine, air, and water sampling. These samples were then analyzed using the best available technology to look for forty of the most common chemicals found in the emissions from fracking sites. The initial outcomes are alarming in terms of the effects on the long-term health and safety of these residents. Benzene and butylcyclohexane were among the chemicals found in both the drinking water and air samples. Breakdown products for the chemicals ethylbenzene, styrene, and toluene were found in the bodies of children living near fracking operations. For example, a nine-year-old participant showed levels of these harmful chemicals up to ninety-one times as high as the average American and substantially higher than levels seen in the average adult cigarette smoker.

This change in prioritization will truly put our seniors and high-risk workers at the top of the list and allow at-risk smokers to still receive the vaccine. Healthcare organizations have been overwhelmed since the Department of Health made the decision to permit anyone over 65 and those with preexisting conditions into the Phase LA category. This decision was made without notifying these organizations or giving them time to prepare to meet their communities' needs. As institutions struggle to meet the extremely high demand for the vaccine in Phase 1A, we're baffled why the Department of Health would prioritize young adult smokers in the same classification as our seniors and high-risk populations.
