Thank you to Senator Shelley Mayer, Chair of the New York Senate Education Committee, for meeting with me to discuss essential funding for literacy and education initiatives that will significantly impact the futures of students across New York. I’m honored to join forces to advocate for meaningful investment in programs that can shape the next generation of New York’s leaders. Speaking on behalf of education rights and literacy needs is a step toward closing the literacy gap and putting a familiar face to this crucial issue. #service #education #educationrights #literacy #ReadToSucceed #MissNewYork #MissNewYorkOrg #MissAmerica #MissAmericaOpportunity
