“This week really showed the power of community rallying around kids and families, said L Quette Taylor, founder and CEO of Community Matters 2, one of the many partners in the coalition. We want to help keep that momentum going by bringing families and kids together as much as possible and supporting them in whatever way we can. This series of pop-ups is just a start, but it’s important for us as a group to show that we’re about action, helping meet the community’s needs not just in the future, but right now.”

On Monday, the Dutchess County Legislature authorized a land agreement and a $10 million request from Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro to begin work on creating a state-of-the-art Youth Opportunity Center in the City of Poughkeepsie.
The center, to be constructed at the former YMCA site on Montgomery Street, will be a multi-use facility that focuses on recreational, educational and healthy opportunities – both physical and mental – for youth, officials say.
The center also will be a fixture for County’s Path to Promise initiative that employs strategic ways to ensure all young people in Dutchess County have the assets they need to realize their full potential as they grow into young adults.
