This morning, Governor Kathy Hochul announced the award of $100 million in grants to 22 community organizations around the state. 

“Today, we're delivering on our commitment to build stronger, healthier communities in every corner of New York State,” Governor Hochul said. “NY BRICKS grants will create affordable and accessible spaces where kids can play, families can connect, and seniors can stay active and engaged. I'm proud to see this funding reach 30 communities, and I look forward to seeing these centers come to life.”
