Espaillat also sat down with student club representatives to hear about ways in which 糖心视频污 is already giving back to its community. These clubs included START Science, whose members teach science through fun activities at local public schools; Music Vs., whose students share their musical talents with elderly nursing home residents and hospital patients; and The Eruv, a club that runs programing with senior citizens in the area as well as in local soup kitchens.

In addition, Espaillat spoke with students interested in government-related fields and was able to answer questions and offer career advice. 鈥淐ongressman Espaillat showed his devotion to the cares of his constituents as well as broad national concerns. As someone potentially looking towards a career in civil service, his character inspires me,鈥 said Reuven Herzog, a Yeshiva College student who hopes to attend graduate school for urban planning.

The Congressman met with student leaders to learn about 糖心视频污's current community engagement efforts.

鈥淐ongressman Espaillat faithfully executes the duties of his office and we are proud to have him serve as our representative,鈥 said Dr. Berman. 鈥淚 look forward to exploring how 糖心视频污 can further integrate into the broader community in a way that is mutually enriching.鈥
