Over the past year, e3 client Jewish Family Services of Western New Yorkhas pivoted to focus on the broader needs of the local community, including expanding its behavioral health clinic and services. This includes a recent grant from New York State to develop an adult Critical Time Intervention Team in partnership with Erie County Medical Center.

CEO Dr. Molly Carr and VP of Behavioral Health & Wellness Programs Dr. Katie Diebold were guests on BTPM NPR's What’s Next today to share more details.

How Is Western New York Addressing Gaps in Mental Health Care? On this episode of What’s Next?, we explore the Adult Critical Time Intervention (CTI) program and how it works to reduce homelessness, prevent rehospitalization, and connect individuals with essential services including housing, transportation, nutrition, and behavioral health treatment.

Last year, New York Governor Kathy Hochul made a historic visit to the Seneca Nation’s Cattaraugus Territory to formally apologize for the state’s role in the operation of the Thomas Indian School on the Cattaraugus Territory from 1875-1957. Thousands of Native children were forcibly removed from their families and forced to attend the school, where they were stripped of their traditional language, culture, and customs.

A year after the Governor’s apology, Seneca Nation President J. Conrad Seneca is calling for the state to support the construction and operation of two immersion schools on Seneca territory to help revitalize the traditional language the Thomas Indian School tried to destroy.

Commentary: N.Y. tried to destroy our language. Now it can help repair the damage. Over decades, facilities like the Thomas Indian School tried to erase Native culture. Now the Senecas want the state's help to build language immersion schools.

In recent years, hundreds of National Grid employees have been volunteering at the Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Military Park on September 11 as part of what’s become an annual Day of Service. Their work has resulted in new areas of the USS Little Rock being illuminated, providing the ability to open never-before-seen areas of the ship where guests can learn and explore: the combat information center and engineering spaces that include massive engine parts.

Yesterday, our client National Grid was part of a media tour of these spaces which will soon be open to the public.
