OUR COMMUNITY NEEDS YOUTH COURT AND DRUG TREATMENT COURT

I’m running for Town Justice because this is how I can make our court and our community a better place for my family and yours.

My wife and I live in Springs.  We own our home and this is where we are going to raise our family.  Having a court that serves the needs of our community is essential.  We need a court that treats everyone equally, and knows what cases need rehabilitation.  This also means that our court needs to keep up with other courts in our area and offer the critical programs to help people with different types if issues in order to treat the root of crime. 

Our courts needs to bring back Youth Court, it needs to work better with social workers to treat people in need, and we need to have a Drug Court so our neighbors who need treatment don’t have to travel to Hampton Bays and Riverhead just to get the help they need.
