Good News
Supporting
Resources for Pennsylvanians with Alzheimer’s
Earlier this month, I met with advocates from
the Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Pennsylvania about
creating an Alzheimer's Division within the Department of Aging that
will bring specialized care and additional resources to Pennsylvanians
suffering with dementia and Alzheimer's.
Leadership
Pittsburgh
Thank you to the fellows of
Leadership Pittsburgh Inc. for meeting with me this month to discuss
education, transportation, and childcare needs here in the Pittsburgh
region.
I'm proud to work with these local leaders to ensure
that Allegheny County has fully and fairly funded schools; quality,
affordable childcare; and public transit that works for residents!
Making
Pittsburgh a Leader in Green Energy Jobs
On
May 16, I joined Sustainable Pittsburgh, The Energy Efficiency
Alliance, and the Regional Clean Energy Jobs Coalition to talk about
the future Clean Energy Center in Homewood.
This facility will
provide job training for the next generation of green home and
commercial construction workers, making Allegheny County a leader in
family-sustaining, green jobs. Thank you to everyone who participated
at the event!
Playing
Around at the Children’s Museum of
Pittsburgh
You don't have to be a kid to enjoy
the wonders of the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh! The museum was
voted #2 Best Children's Museum in USA Today's 2024 Readers' Choice
poll. We're so lucky to have this asset in our region!
Jessica
recommends checking out the Gymlacium in the MuseumLab. Take off your
shoes and climb into artist Manca Ahlin's interactive art piece. She
transformed the former Carnegie Library steel bookshelves into a
three-story woven rope gym where you can climb, slide, swing, and
chill!
Go to their website to see current exhibits and
different admission discounts!

Peabody
WWI Memorial Restoration Ribbon Cutting!
Calling all history buffs! Come out on Thursday, May 30th from 11:00
am -12:30 pm to see the unveiling of the beautifully restored 1924
Peabody WWI Memorial on its 100th birthday at the Barack Obama Academy
of International Studies in Pittsburgh's East Liberty
neighborhood.
The more than 6-foot-tall bronze statue was
created by Frank Vittor for the students of Peabody High School (now
Obama Academy) who served in WWI. It is the most significant war
memorial or piece of public art at any PPS school. The statue includes
Columbia, the personification of America; a mother and son; a returned
soldier about to be crowned with laurels; the allegorical figure of
Victory clutching a wreath; and a depiction of Immortality.
Thanks to Preservation Pittsburgh and Pittsburgh’s Historic
Review Commission, funds were raised to restore the statue and create
a new school quad and outdoor classroom surrounding the memorial. Hope
to see you there!
