Senator Tony Avella Visits QCP’s Bellerose Campus
State Senator Tony Avella visited QCP’s Bellerose Campus on January 28th despite the harsh wintry conditions. He spoke with participants and staff in the QCP Day Services Program and visited our residential campus. Senator Avella listened intently to the concerns QCP has about various issues, including the State budget and how it might affect people with disabilities. One of the participant’s mother toured the campus with the Senator and explained how important the Day Program was for her son who attends our program.
Tony Avella’s impressive resume of public service speaks for itself. Whether it’s been preserving the sanctity of our neighborhoods, securing proper funding for our local public schools, or voting to cut taxes so that our families can survive through the toughest of economic times, Tony’s life has been dedicated to serving his constituents and looking out for New York’s middle-class families. As our next State Senator, he’ll continue his legacy as a fighter for the people and as a representative in Albany that we can all be proud of.
Tony is a graduate of Hunter College of the City University of New York. He is a lifelong Queens resident and currently resides in Whitestone, Queens with his wife Judith.
