Dear fellow New Yorker
Mayor Adams joined the Sikh community this weekend for the 36th annual parade celebrating their faith and traditions on Madison Avenue. We honor the Sikh community’s commitment to service and their contributions to this city.
Last week, we hosted a Small Business Services resources fair in Queens and the Bronx to encourage small business owners to certify as a M/WBE vendor. The next one is tomorrow on Staten Island, and there will be two additional fairs following that. This upcoming weekend also marks Orthodox Easter. We wish all who celebrate a Happy Easter!
For the latest updates, please follow CAU on Twitter and Facebook, and be sure to check out the Mayor's "Week In Review" video below.
All the best, Fred Kreizman Commissioner, Community Affairs Unit Office of the Mayor |

Mayor Adams Releases Executive Budget For Fiscal Year 2025, Making Significant, Sustainable Investments In New Yorkers Following Strong Fiscal Management
Mayor Eric Adams released the City of New York’s balanced $111.6 billion Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 Executive Budget. Mayor Adams' budget builds on the administration’s actions, since last fall, to stabilize the city’s fiscal outlook, and has positioned the city to backfill long-term programs that had only been funded with temporary stimulus funds while making the investments that double down on the city’s efforts to strengthen public safety, rebuild the economy, and make the city more livable.
Mayor Adams Doubles Down on Efforts to Reduce Shootings, Homicides by Adding 1,200 new Police Recruits This Year

Each of the two new classes will add 600 new recruits to the rolls this calendar year, bringing the total number of new NYPD recruits in 2024 to 2,400.
