FAMILIES FOR INCLUSION: FFI aims to promote education about autism, neurodiversity, and inclusion in elementary schools, and to assist the process wherever it can. Its goal is for every elementary school classroom in the country to provide a standard, age-appropriate educational program about autism, neurodiversity, and inclusion for their students, staff, and parents, as well as to create a culture of inclusivity, understanding, and belonging for every child in special education or with an IEP. This is accomplished through programs, assemblies, workshops, and grants for schools that embody its mission.
LEVITTOWN-ISLAND TREES VFW POST 9592: As a local “boots on the ground” component of the oldest veterans service organization, this post puts the purpose and mission of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States into action. They are proud to serve all veterans, active/reserve military and their families, and the Long Island community since 1948. They believe in mission first, and people always. Their membership consists of overseas combat veterans from World War II through the current Global War on Terror.
THE SPINOFFS: Bringing your favorite songs to your favorite spots. Female-fronted primarily rock cover band playing rock & pop hits from ‘80s-today, with a ‘90s focus. Playing everything from Led Zeppelin + AC/DC to The Killers + Olivia Rodrigo. If it moves the crowd they’re into it.
