Attorney General James revealed that the City of Syracuse was one of 10 cities to be awarded a Cities RISE (Responsible Investment and Strategic Enforcement) grant, in the amount of $965,000. The grant funding will be used to empower community members to build effective relationships with residents through an ambassador program, partnering with the Center for Court Innovation's Near Westside Peacemaking Project. The ambassadors will also assist the City's Department of Neighborhood and Business Development planners in developing and implementing long-term neighborhood plans, serving as Resurgent Neighborhood Initiative Ambassadors. Funding will also be designated towards increasing the legal team's capacity with support staff to help expedite processes leading to codes compliance by landlords.
Mayor Walsh spent time with a group of young peopl Mayor Walsh spent time with a group of young people from @syracuserise and the North Side Learning Center, offering insight into City government and ways to get involved in the community. Many of the youth, either in college or enrolled in local SCSD high school, are interested in learning more about the various career paths and service opportunities within government. Many organizations, like RISE and the North Side Learning Center, expose young people to topics, industries, jobs, interests, and resources that serve as a catalyst for the leaders of the future. When and wherever possible, do your part to support the youth in our community - you never know where the time you give may take them.

What was at the center of @centerstateceo’s Inve What was at the center of @centerstateceo’s Investor’s Meeting: education. Mayor Walsh was invited to speak to members and private businesses about the STEAM school and opportunities to not just invest in our city but invest in the future and current workforce. The meeting ended with a special hard-hat tour of the building to show members the beautiful structure, let them hear the acoustics of the amazing Lincoln Auditorium, and to imagine a regional and state investment. The state and our regional partners are investing in an opportunity for a workforce training center to train residents on new skills. With a one-of-a-kind in the state STEM and Arts school to prepare students for the jobs and opportunities in the age of connectivity, our students will be competitively at an advantage for the jobs of tomorrow. #ourcityscholars
