Visited Eastern Correctional Facility w/ @BPIBard@Camilo4NY & Erik Dilan yesterday. We heard from dozens of incarcerated people how the college program changed their lives. So vital to support programs like this for incarcerated people. College changed lives.

Join NatDDP in congratulating @Camilo4NY, Counsel to the Speaker of the @NYSA_Majority for her well-deserved recognition as #Bronx Borough Honoree.
Let's come together and celebrate 'Nuestra Historia, Nuestra Gente; Our History, Our People'.
