NATIONAL POLICE WEEK: A FEW THOUGHTS

It's National Police Week - a week set aside to honor the service and sacrifice of our police officers around the United States. It is incredibly encouraging to see and hear our state & local police departments having conversations and building relationships directly in our communities and with its members so that all feel safe and heard.

Conversations about change and stepping out of societal norms and comfort zones are often difficult ones but necessary nonetheless. We thank you for this.
 
Of note, I'd like to give a special shout out to Chief Arciero and his Canton Police Department, as well as Police Administrator Rio and his Avon Police Department. Thank you for all the good work you do across our towns each and every day.

CHILD CARE PROGRAM STABILIZATION FUNDING AVAILABLE

A total of $120 million will be used for operational stabilization grants for struggling child care businesses that have been hit hard by the impact of the pandemic. Please click on the image below for more details and information on eligibility and how to apply.

A BELATED HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO YOU

I had the chance to spend the day yesterday with two of my three children and I’m hoping that you were surrounded by the people you love on this special day. To all the mothers, step-mothers, like-a-mothers, aunties, and fur baby moms, I hope it was a Happy Mother’s Day!
