On Friday, March 8th, the New Hope Community in Loch Sheldrake is set to join the "Rally in the Valley" at Letchworth Village in Stony Point, NY, to advocate for better compensation for Direct Service Professionals who support 140,000 vulnerable residents across New York.
New Hope, among others, is advocating for a 3.2% pay raise, a significant step up from the 1.5% increase proposed in Governor Kathy Hochul's current budget.
Debbie McGinness, CEO of New Hope Community spoke to Jason Dole on The Local Edition.
