In addition to establishing this new unit, the County Police Department donated $25,000 from Asset Forfeiture funds to assist with startup costs. Currently, the Nassau County Police Department provides officers to oversee 32 PAL units and interact with the youths in communities through sports, crafts, educational programs, and more. Under County Executive Curran’s leadership, new PAL units have been established in Elmont, Lawrence, and now Roosevelt – the first new offices opened in over 50 years.

The funding would assist Nassau Health Care Corporation (NHCC) renovate facilities to include veteran’s in patient services and specialized care, as well as establish a Veteran’s Adult Day Health Care Program and make upgrades to unoccupied apartment buildings located on NHCC’s East Meadow Campus to house veterans suffering from housing insecurity. The funding would preserve NHCC’s role as the region’s only public safety net healthcare system and establish an important satellite to the Northport VA Hospital for thousands of veterans who require treatment but find it out-of-reach due to distance constraints.
