Senator Simcha Felder sponsored an Agency Fair today at the Midwood Library where nearly two hundred community members turned out to take advantage of available services. Representatives were on hand from numerous New York City, State and non-profit organizations including The American Italian Cancer Foundation, Brooklyn Housing, COJO Flatbush, FDNY, Hamaspik, National Grid, the NYC Department for the Aging, the NYC Department of Finance, NYLAG (New York Legal Assistance Group), the NYPD, New York Energy Audits, and Premium Health.

“It’s great to see so many of our neighbors come out and take advantage of these opportunities to learn about available services,” said Senator Felder. “People were able to get free mammograms, free smoke detectors, get their blood pressure checked, and many more services in very little time and with very little effort. On behalf of our residents, I’d like to thank the Midwood Library for accommodating us again, as well as the many agencies and their representatives who took the time to attend today.”
