The Audit Office wants to hear from you! The City of Albany’s Office of Audit and Control wants to better understand how community members are experiencing the COVID-19/Coronavirus pandemic, especially those from communities of color.
If you are an Albany resident, please fill out an anonymous 5-minute City of Albany COVID-19 Community Survey by 5pm on Tuesday (9/1).
The survey results will help the City of Albany government respond to the needs of the community in the event of a second wave of COVID-19 or future emergency.

A message from the South End Community Collaborative:
My Dear Friends,
I am writing all of you today to ask for your help.
We are having a mass food distribution on Friday, August 21st. It will be held at 230 Green Street, Albany, in the Centro Civico parking lot starting at
9:30am. We will be distributing 24 tons of food that day and need as many volunteers as we can get. I have attached both the flyer for the distribution and the flyer requesting volunteers.
This is a crucial time and the success of the day depends on volunteers to assist us in providing this much needed resource during this pandemic. I am aware that many of you have gone back to work, so if you cannot attend, please forward to your friends who may still be working from home and can contribute some time to this worthy cause.
I thank you in advance and in prayer. My mobile number is listed below, please feel free to call or text.

APL (Albany Public Library) has partnered with several community and city organizations, and the Upper Hudson Library System, to bring StoryWalks® to Albany neighborhoods!
A StoryWalk® is a way for families with young children to enjoy reading stories while outdoors.
Pages from picture books are laminated and attached to wooden stakes that are posted at regular intervals along an outdoor walking path or sidewalk. As families stroll, they stop and read pages of the story.
Albany Public Library’s StoryWalks® will be up through September 2020.
