Your Vote Is Your Voice

By Lisa Scott President of the League of Women Voters of Suffolk County

As a member of the League of Women Voters (LWV), a 102 year old nonpartisan organization that encourages the informed and active participation of citizens in government, this is my “busy season.” With my LWV colleagues, all volunteers, I speak to groups, answer countless questions, organize and moderate debates, and write articles; all as outreach during election season. Additionally, we encourage all citizens to vote responsibly in every election in which they are eligible, whether that be fire districts, libraries, school districts, local, state or federal. Your vote is your voice and I urge you to use it this Election Day, Tuesday, November 8th. Below is some significant information to keep in mind:

• Be sure you are registered to vote prior to heading to the polls.

• Because of redistricting, mandated by the US Constitution after the (2020) census, some of your district numbers may have changed! You can find your polling place easily on the NYS Board of Elections (BOE) website at www.voterlookup. elections.ny.gov. If you don’t have access to the internet, go to your local public library, where you can find assistance to get on one of their computers. Your information is private.

• You may have applied for an absentee ballot. If you plan to vote this way, the same website allows you to track your ballot to be sure it’s been received and will be counted by your county’s BOE. With a new tracking system now in place, if you have applied for an absentee ballot, but you decide you’d rather vote in person, you will not be able to cast your vote in a machine during early voting or on Election Day. Instead, you’ll be given an “affidavit ballot” and the BOE will check your records

to confirm whether or not your absentee ballot was received. This is to ensure no one’s vote is counted twice.

• This year you’ll be voting for your local member of the House of Representatives, one US Senator, NYS Governor and Lt. Governor and your local member of the NYS Senate and NYS Assembly. In Suffolk County, you’ll also vote for County Comptroller and County Clerk. There may be some local races on the ballot too.

• There is a NYS Environmental Bond proposition on the back of your ballot. If approved, this would allow the NYS Comptroller to issue and sell $4.2million in bonds to be used to fund environmental protection, natural restoration, resiliency, and clean energy projects. This is not a tax, investors buy NYS bonds.

• Suffolk County also has a countywide proposition clarifying the wording of the term limits law and four Suffolk townships have local propositions too. Nassau does not have a county proposition on this year’s ballot.

Please plan ahead; learn about the candidates and know what’s on your ballot. You can visit www.vote411. org, enter your address (no need for your name or personal info) and you will see the offices, candidates, and propositions that will be on the ballot. All candidates were sent questions and given the opportunity to answer them on the site; sometimes candidates refuse to respond, this is indicated. No one ever should be too busy, too disinterested or even too frustrated to vote. Your vote is your hard-earned right, but also your obligation as an American citizen.

Helping You Help Others

By Noelle Lambert

The Charity of the Month for November is Association for Mental Health and Wellness

On Friday, November 11, Long Islanders join all Americans to mark Veterans Day, a day to honor those who’ve served our country and protected our freedoms.

In this spirit, our Charity of the Month for November is one of Long Island’s leading advocates for the interests of our veterans, the Ronkonkoma-based Association for Mental Health and Wellness (MHAW).

While MHAW serves all residents in Suffolk County by offering comprehensive services and advocacy that focus on mental health as well as overall health and wellness, the organization places a major focus on assisting Suffolk County’s veteran population.

MHAW provides a high-level of support for our community’s veterans regarding affordable housing, medical and mental health assistance, reintegration skills, and other necessary supportive services. MHAW truly serves a surprisingly large number of veterans.

Home to more than 800,000 veterans, New York State has the fifth-highest veteran population of any state nationwide, and some 72,000 veterans reside in Suffolk County, the most of any county in the Empire State. Indeed, that Suffolk County figure is 18 percent higher than the number for Erie County, which ranks number two.

Sadly, our country’s veteran population, which includes our local veterans, face substantial mental health challenges. According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, the rate of major depression among military veterans is five times as high as

If

call

that of civilians, and the rate of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is nearly 15 times higher. Left untreated, these invisible wounds can

have devastating effects on veterans and their families. According to the RAND Center, a non-profit, public policy, research organization, people affected with depression, PTSD, and traumatic brain injury can exhibit higher rates of other unhealthy behaviors, higher rates of physical health issues, and higher rates of suicide than those who are not affected.

MHAW tackles these challenges facing veterans in several strategic ways. In future columns this month, we’ll explore four of their standout initiatives: One significant component of MHAW’s veterans services is the Joseph P. Dwyer Veterans Peer Support Project, named after an Army medic from Mt. Sinai who succumbed to PTSD upon his return from Iraq. A second element is MHAW’s work in providing permanent housing with support services to veterans. A third program is called Supportive Services for Veteran Families, which functions in partnership with EOC of Suffolk, Inc. And a fourth component are MHAW’s food pantries and its efforts to battle food insecurity

If you are a veteran, if you know a veteran in need, or if you just want to lend a hand, MHAW encourages you to contact them at (631) 471-7242 x1502 or email mleis@mhaw.org.

Together, let’s help our veterans. MHAW urges you to step forward and support the valiant veterans living right here in our community, and to help them live fulfilling lives.

Hall Of Achievement Celebrates 25 Years Of Copiague Success

Continuing its longstanding tradition of excellence, the Copiague School District celebrated its 2022 Hall of Achievement inductees during a ceremony held on Oct. 15 at Walter G. O’Connell Copiague High School.

Joined by family, friends, Copiague School District administrators and board of education members, this year’s honorees were Gloria Hodgson (Class of 1980), Anthony S. Pepe (Class of 1996), Kenrich Thomas (Class of 2007) and Kia Wright (Class of 2003). Board of Education President Kenneth Urban welcomed guests to the ceremony and congratulated the newest inductees on this achievement.

“You should all be very proud of your accomplishments and successes,” he said. “There are two main reasons for our Hall of Achievement. One is to recognize our alumni for

their leadership, dedication, hard work and community involvement. The other is to show our students, both past and present, that we are always with them for years to come. Current students all have the opportunity to read about our inducted alumni through the years, showing them the pride that comes from striving to do your best in your career as well as give back to your community.”

Copiague School District’s Superintendent of Schools Dr. Kathleen Bannon spoke about the creation of the Hall of Achievement in 1996, now in its 25th year, and the tradition it carries. “In honoring successful past graduates of Copiague, the Hall of Achievement’s primary purpose is to introduce these alumni as positive role models to our entire school community. By the nature of their accomplishments and service, inductees into the

Hall of Achievement inspire our students to reach their goals.”

After graduating from Copiague, Gloria Hodgson received her bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from Shaw University and a master’s degree in public safety administration from Columbus State University. Starting her criminal justice career as a jailer in Georgia, she later became a police officer, detective and eventually was promoted to police captain, the first ever captain of the Union City Police Department.

Anthony S. Pepe, who currently serves a vice president for the Copiague Board of Education, has been working in corporate operations management his entire career, servicing Fortune 500 companies all over the globe. He is currently the senior vice president of operations at Castle Merchandising, co-owner/CEO of A Mano Baking Company and

FIRE SAFETY FIRST AT GREAT NECK ROAD - In conjunction with National Fire Prevention month in October, the Copiague Fire Department and EMS workers visited with students at Great Neck Road Elementary School in the Copiague School District on Oct. 20 for two assemblies on fire safety.

Black Tea Drinkers

A small study from researchers at University College London found that black tea drinkers had significantly lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol than non-tea drinkers within 50 minutes of experiencing a stress-inducing event. The study also found that black tea drinkers expressed themselves in a more relaxed way than non-tea drinkers within 50 minutes of a stressful experience.
