Why Don Lemon is skipping the White House Correspondents’ Dinner “I’m not interested in dressing up in a tuxedo, sipping champagne, and pretending everything is normal with a president and a regime that spends every day attacking, undermining, and trying to discredit journalists and journalism.”




















On Monday, I met with staff and toured the NY Foundling’s Regional Office in Nanuet. The NY Foundling has a 150-year history of serving residents across New York. The organization provides carefully designed programs, effective and interrelated services, and opportunities for community members to create transformational change in their lives. The Foundling serves 30,000 people each year through a whole-life, whole-person approach. These services include helping children and families navigate through and beyond foster care, supporting families struggling with poverty and conflict, assisting individuals with developmental disabilities, and removing barriers for community members through health and mental health services. In NY-17, the Foundling operates eight homes for people with developmental disabilities. The Nanuet Regional Office serves as the hub for the Foundling’s Rockland, Westchester, and Orange County based services for individuals with developmental disabilities.
