As the city marked the solemn occasion of Holocaust Remembrance Day on Thursday, April, 8, Assemblywoman Nily Rozic announced an increase of $1.5 million in funding to the Holocaust Survivors Initiative that was a top priority in this year’s state budget.
Rozic thanked Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie and 10 state legislators for their partnership in securing the essential funding to assist Holocaust survivors. This record allocation marks an almost 400 percent increase in funding from previous year’s budgets.
