Current Events

President's Home Destroyed by Fire.

By now, many of you have heard the news that the home of our president, Christopher Irizarry, has been destroyed by fire. Fortunately, Chris and his family were not injured.

Since news of the tragedy became public, many of you have been kind enough to offer financial assistance to Chris. While he is very appreciative of these offers, this tragedy has turned his thoughts to other families who have suffered the tragedy of losing their home.

Accordingly, he has asked that anyone wishing to offer assistance should consider contributing to the North Hudson Community Action Foundation’s efforts to expand and relocate our Emergency Food & Shelter Program. As you know, this program responds to those who have suffered similar tragedies and is an important lifeline to families having no other resources and struggling to regain control of their lives.

Seasonal Flu Vaccine at the Health Centers

Every flu season brings new challenges to NHCAC. This year we will be conducting a school-based H1N1 Inoculation Program for all schools and licensed child-care facilities for the municipalities we cover under public health. September 16, 2009 is the kick off date for the seasonal influenza vaccination for health center patients and any community members who wish to seek vaccination for the SEASONAL INFLUENZA VACCINE ONLY. We plan to run these clinics through April 30, 2010 unless other wise indicated.
