    On October 25th we held a community forum for the Spanish speaking community of Ellenville and Wawarsing. Working with Hudson Valley Interpreters, a part of the Language Justice Collective of the Hudson Valey, who provided two interpreters and headsets, we were able to present in Spanish and have simultaneous bilingual translation for an effective and comprehensive focus group discussion on the needs of the community. This vital conversation with an underserved population of Ulster County will greatly enhance the re-envisioning of the Trudy Resnick Farber building in Ellenville, as well as help us to improve how all county agencies serve the Spanish speaking community overall.

    In August and September we sat down with 12 local organizations working across Ulster County and in Ellenville to discuss how we could work together to incorporate more services into the schedule at Trudy Resnick Farber. Organizations including the YMCA, Family Services, Gateway, RCAL, Legal Services of the Hudson Valley, People USA and more came and brainstormed exciting new opportunities for Ellenville Residents.

    We're working on the nitty gritty of making these changes happen, from partnerships to timelines, and are excited for the upcoming programming to really begin in 2024.
