Dear Friend,

In October, we celebrated the survivors of Domestic Violence and Breast Cancer, while raising awareness on how they continue to impact our community and highlighting the support that is available citywide. I would like to thank Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito, my colleagues in the New York City Council, Commissioner Rose Pierre-Louis of the Mayor's Office to Combat Domestic Violence, and my fellow New Yorkers who helped to make NYC Go Purple Day such a success. 

It is important to realize that raising awareness for domestic violence isn't something that should be done on one day and then forgotten. Domestic violence is a year-round issue that deserves year-round attention. Let us further educate ourselves on how to prevent domestic violence then empower others to become UpStanders. 

Early detection save lives. I encourage you to get screened regularly for breast and other forms of cancer.

Election Day was a turning point for our state, as well as the nation. It is up to us to continue pressing on and to galvanize our community so that our collective voices can be heard.

I hope that you will continue to engage with my office, exchanging ideas and solutions to improve our district, city, and state.

Yours in Partnership,

Laurie A. Cumbo

Member of the New York City Council
