Long Island Coalition for the Homeless (LICH) was originally founded in 1985 as a grassroots local advocacy effort to bring nonproﬁts and other community partners together to unite around the cause of homelessness, seeking to expand and enhance services to meet local needs. As a small local entity, LICH has always relied on partnerships and joint efforts in order to adequately provide support for those that were experiencing homelessness on Long Island.

Over time, homelessness has continued to become a growing community challenging, through deinstitutionalization, national de-funding of safety net programs in the 1980s, the war on drugs, housing market crashes, recessions, natural disasters and most significantly (as the number one cause of homelessness on Long Island and nation-wide) the extremely high costs of housing and other expenses to live on Long Island, amongst other things. The mission of LICH is to end homelessness on Long Island and alleviate the issues associated with homelessness and poverty for homeless and at risk persons in Nassau and Suffolk Counties. The majority of people experiencing homelessness on Long Island are families that cannot afford rent or cannot find rental units quickly enough in a high cost and low availability rental market. There is also a significant local homeless population of aging single adults and adult couples that were living on fixed incomes and could no longer afford rent. While many of us could never imagine being homeless for even a single night, for both homeless families and homeless aging adults on Long Island, most remain homeless in a shelter for over six months on average,

while some remain homeless in shelters for several years before securing permanent housing. LICH has expanded their services. These services include street outreach, housing navigation, system data management and outcomes tracking. All of those are part of what has become known as the local “Coordinated Entry System”. Coordinated Entry is a personcentered, housing-focused approach to streamline access to housing and services, while prioritizing those who have been homeless the longest and those who are the most in need of housing and support. In 2020, LICH assisted over 3,000 Long Islanders with food and toiletries and connected approximately 200 households to permanent housing. Next month from November 14-November 21 it will be Hunger and Homeless Awareness Week, let’s join together and help those in need. There are many ways you can receive help from, donate to or volunteer with this non-proﬁt. Keep an eye out for next week’s article for more information on that. Until then, visit www.addressthehomeless.org or contact Greta Guarton, the Executive Director of LICH at gguarton@ addressthehomeless.org or 631-4644313 x 113 if you are looking for more information.

Operation SPLASH is a nonprofit organization founded in 1990 with the goal of cleaning up and preserving Long Island’s south shore bays, beaches, and salt marshes. Since then, the organization has grown from one caring person to several thousand members across seven chapters dotted along Long Island’s South Shore. SPLASH’s seven cleanup boats run from March through November and are fully operated by volunteer captains and crew members. Over the past three decades, volunteers have retrieved more than 3,000,000 pounds of litter, marine debris, and navigational hazards from the south shore. Most of what is pulled from the water comes from landbased sources — through storm drains and from

storms blowing debris into the water. In efforts to reduce the impact of storm drain-sourced marine debris, Operation SPLASH designed and currently maintains the Mill Basin Debris Trap and advocated for other environmental legislation in New York State. Beyond collecting marine debris, Operation SPLASH has also made tremendous headway in stemming the awful tide of sewage being dumped in our bays and the toxic pollution entering our

waters through stormwater runoff. SPLASH crews actively monitor and identify pollutants, as well as their sources. To reduce the flow of toxins and trash into the bays, SPLASH has collaborated on the funding and installation of more than 4,000 street storm drain inserts in Nassau County. Operation SPLASH also offers STEM-based education programs to educate students throughout Nassau County about the importance of Long Island’s south shore bays and the challenges that they face. Students from elementary school through college have the opportunity to learn through hands-on programming that goes beyond the classroom to include boat tours and local

Dive In & Donate To Last Hope In Honor Of Tom’s “K-9 Mile Swim” Tom Collings of Bellmore is swimming 9 miles to mark his 70th birthday. On Monday, October 11 (Columbus Day) beginning at 7:00am, if tides and weather permit. If not, the K-9 Mile Swim will be rescheduled. The Swim will end any time from 3:00 pm and 6:30 pm depending on water conditions. We hope to have Last Hope dogs as cheerleaders at the start of Tom’s swim- contingent on the dogs’ adopters being early risers. The event will take place at from Cold Spring Harbor to Lloyd Harbor and back, starting and ending at boat basin by Billy Joel Town of Huntington Park. Tom will be accompanied by 2 friends paddling kayaks.Andrew Pannullo, Tom’s massage therapist and Dr. David Komatsu, professor of medicine and martial arts teacher at Stony Brook University. Tom is a wellness advocate and dog lover. He recently lost his rescued dog Rosy to old age. Tom hopes his milestone birthday swim will promote pet adoptions and wellness along with demonstrating the importance of a healthy lifestyle for people, including his many martial

arts, tai chi and Zen students. Tom is asking people to sponsor his birthday milestone swim with a monetary pledge to Last Hope Animal Rescue in Wantagh to support Last Hope’s veterinary care and adoptions. Tom has spent his life helping people improve their health and mental outlook. Many of Last Hope’s dogs and cats are not rescued from rough situations until they are older, or even seniors. Their wellness is a concern. By providing thorough vet care for our mature pets including dentals, lab work, x-rays and other procedures when necessary, Last Hope strives to place them in

loving homes where they will thrive for years to come. Monetary pledges of any size are appreciated. Donation suggestions: $70 for Tom’s 70th birthday, $40 for Last Hope’s 40th anniversary, a dollar amount per mile in the K-9 Mile Swim such as $9, $18, $27. Donations can be mailed to Last Hope, PO Box 7025, Wantagh, NY 11793, or made via the “K-9 Mile Swim” PayPal link below: https://www.paypal.com/ donate?hosted_button_ id=WTUALB9JMZ5WS Tom Collings (Tbarc9@ gmail.com) is an author, retired law enforcement officer, former Zen monk in Japan. Currently involved in school security, also instructor of meditation and martial arts at Long Island Asian Studies Center, Bellmore, NY. Tom Collings books include Searching for O’ Sensei-Learning and Living the Legends of the Warrior and Aikido: Demise and Rebirth. By the way, Tom feels the “dog paddle” is the least shoulder-stressing stroke and best way to move through the water during a distance swim.

Free Transportation Through ‘Ride United’ To And From Covid-19 Vaccine Appointments United Way of Long Island recently launched ‘Ride United’ to help local residents access transportation to receive the COVID-19 vaccine through the rideshare service Lyft. The program is part of United Way Worldwide’s Ride United Vaccine Access Campaign, which addresses unmet transportation needs for individuals and families. Long Island residents participating in ‘Ride United’ receive 2 free Lyft rides (up to $25 each way) to and from vaccination appointments located in Nassau or Suffolk Counties. Riders must download the Lyft app on a supported device and have an active Lyft account. “United Way of Long Island is committed to keeping our communities safe and healthy. Ride United removes barriers of transportation inequity, ensuring that any Long Islander seeking to get vaccinated can get to and from their appointment without cost,” said Theresa A.

United Way of Long Island has helped seniors, veterans and families receive emergency financial assistance, fresh groceries, PPE items and HEPA air purifiers to improve their health, well-being and financial security during the pandemic. Expanding access to vaccination appointments provides a critical resource for neighbors who would otherwise be unable to get to their appointment due to financial, transport or other reasons. If you or someone you know needs transportation to and from your COVID-19 vaccination appointment, visit www.unitedwayli.org/rideunited, or contact 211 Long Island by dialing 2-1-1, or outside of Nassau and Suffolk Counties dial

Long Island, home to the largest Making Strides Against Breast Cancer movement in the United States, again will host two powerful Making Strides walks on Sunday, October 17, 2021 at Jones Beach State Park and Saturday, October 30, 2021 on

Main Street in Riverhead, providing reimagined and new ways to support and fund the future of breast cancer research and programs. Both events will be held in accordance with CDC and NY State guidelines to ensure the safety of all attendees. Last

bittersweet mix of purpose – celebrating survivorship and paying meaningful tributes to loved ones lost, while raising awareness and funds for a world without breast cancer. Breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed among women in the U.S. In New York, the American Cancer Society estimates 17,540 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year and 2,510 will succumb to the disease. Nationwide, 2,650 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer in 2021. The American Cancer Society is the nation’s nonprofit leader in the breast cancer fight, putting 100+ years of cancerfighting experience to work through investments in breast cancer research, ensuring greater access to quality care, influencing public policy, and providing

patient support. For more information contact the American Cancer Society via email at LongIslandNYStrides@ cancer.org, (212) 237.3875 or visit www. makingstrideswalk.org/ LongIsland. About the American Cancer Society The American Cancer Society is a global grassroots force of 1.5 million volunteers dedicated to saving lives, celebrating lives, and leading the fight for a world without cancer. From breakthrough research, to free lodging near treatment, a 24/7/365 live helpline, free rides to treatment, and convening powerful activists to create awareness and impact, the Society is the only organization attacking cancer from every angle.
