Veteran suicides up in NY: Utica nonprofit gets $750K prevention grant

The Utica Center for Development was awarded a $750,000 federal grant to expand its veteran suicide prevention efforts. The nonprofit will use the grant money to strengthen suicide prevention services including community outreach, peer support, individualized case management, suicide prevention education and connections to mental health services and other resources for veterans. The money will support a program team of about 10 employees dedicated to helping veterans and their families navigate challenges that can contribute to suicide risk. These risk factors include social isolation, financial instability, housing insecurity and barriers to accessing care. The center will provide these services in 13 counties that include rural and underserved communities where access to suicide prevention and support services has been limited. Those counties include Oneida, Herkimer, Madison, Otsego, Lewis, Fulton, Hamilton, Jefferson, Albany, Delaware, Greene, St. Lawrence and Ulster. "Every veteran deserves to know that help is available, that their life matters and that they are never alone," said Vincent Scalise, CEO of the Utica Center for Development, in a statement. "This $750,000 investment will allow us to strengthen our outreach efforts, build meaningful relationships, and connect veterans with the support they need before challenges become crises. “Our goal is simple: to

NYC DSA may push for AOC 2028 presidential bid with scheme to recruit new members

The city chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America will consider formally pushing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to run for US president in 2028 — with plans for her campaign to grow their lefty ranks. The DSA will vote on a resolution at the group’s convention Saturday that asks member AOC to run with gushing language calling her one of the “most widely beloved members of the Democratic Party.” DSA co-chairs Gustavo Gordillo and Grace Mausser signed the proposed resolution for Ocasio-Cortez, who is fresh off a reelection win in a deeply blue New York House district. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez walks on stage at the Democratic National Convention on Aug. 19, 2024, at the United Center in Chicago. AFP via Getty Images “AOC is one of the most recognizable figures in US politics, the most popular Democrat in Congress, and is one of the most widely beloved members of the Democratic Party alongside other democratic socialists like Bernie Sanders and Zohran Mamdani,” states the resolution, obtained by The Post. The proposal boasts that Ocasio-Cortez’s grassroots support has turned her into one of the most prolific fundraisers in American politics coming “almost entirely from small dollar donors.” Mamdani meets with union bigwig
