This is an issue that means a great deal to me, and today's action means the fund will continue our state's efforts on organ and tissue donation.

We know that not every student wants to attend college after graduation. This grant will help Eastern Westmoreland CTC in preparing its students for career-ready positions.

November is National Home & Hospice Care Month - it's a great time to honor the millions of nurses, home care aides, therapists, and social workers who make a remarkable difference for the patients and families they serve.

[Rep. Joe Petrarca @RepJoePetrarca]

While tonight is Halloween, it's also approaching the end of daylight saving time - be sure to turn your clocks back one hour before going to bed tonight *and* make sure to check your batteries in your home's smoke and carbon monoxide detectors!

[Rep. Joe Petrarca @RepJoePetrarca]

Have a happy and safe Halloween!

[Rep. Joe Petrarca @RepJoePetrarca]

Today's announcement will help, but I won't give up until we get more relief and assistance for our local businesses!

I was proud to sponsor a citation with @RepJeffPyle
honoring Vandergrift resident and Apollo Ridge teacher Jessica Johns.

She received the 2020 Pennsylvania Geographical Society John J. Katana K-12 Distinguished Teaching Award.

[Rep. Joe Petrarca @RepJoePetrarca]

It was a pleasure to be at the ribbon cutting this past Saturday for @allusionbrewing, Vandergrift’s new craft brewery.

They're great people who have done a fantastic job renovating their space at 143 Grant Ave. Stop by, you won’t be disappointed!

[Rep. Joe Petrarca @RepJoePetrarca]

Have you filled out your census yet? If not, take some time today to do it - I promise, it's not scary, but it's so important to our communities.

Today is World Mental Health Day – and it’s hard to imagine a year more stressful and challenging, or a year more difficult to recognize one’s mental health is a key component to overall health that cannot be ignored.

I visited the Loyalhanna Lake Fish habitat project in Westmoreland County today. This combined project with the @fishandboat, @WaterLandLife and the Loyalhanna Watershed Assoc. will result in 520 individual fish habitats being placed throughout the lake.
