I toured the Albert Brothers’ scrap metal recycling facility in Waterbury to see how this local company is proving to be a recycling leader in a global industry.

The Roberto Clemente Youth League is a major hit! A new, free hub has opened to give the community free advice on their personal finances. Waterbury received $105,000 in summer mental health funding.

The Fourth of July is a time to express our American pride, reflect on our history, and celebrate our freedoms and cultural heritage. What better way to celebrate than by checking out the Food Truck & Firework Extravaganza!

A local nonprofit that provides fresh food access is expanding its services once again this summer. The community came together for a special pop-up food distribution. Dozens of people received free eye care and left with much-needed glasses.

It gives me tremendous pride to announce that kids are playing ball in the Roberto Clemente Youth League in the south end of Waterbury for the first time in 47 years.

Today we celebrate Juneteenth, a federal and state holiday commemorating the end of slavery and honoring the incredible contributions the Black community. I was happy to support a couple of Juneteenth celebrations in Waterbury.

The extreme hot weather protocol will last five days for the year's first stretch of brutally hot weather. Our children's urgent crisis center has been up and running for one year in Waterbury.

I was in Hartford at the Latinas & Power Symposium to celebrate the first class in Connecticut to graduate from the Latinas in Leadership Institute. Waterbury Make Music Day will be held on Friday and promises to be a fun event full of music, dance, and great food. Performers will be singing at venues all over the city.
