Nassau County Legislator Delia DeRiggi-Whitton (D - Glen Cove) and County Executive Laura Curran toured downtown Glen Cove recently to inform local businesses about relief opportunities that can be accessed through the Boost Nassau Resource Center.
 
County Executive Curran and Legislator DeRiggi-Whitton, who serves as the Minority Caucus representative on the Executive’s COVID-19 Economic Advisory Council, visited local businesses, where they urged small business owners to secure their fair share of assistance through the Boost Nassau Recovery Center. The multi-lingual service compiles federal, state, county and town-level COVID-19 recovery assistance resources into a centralized website and brick-and-mortar resource center in Eisenhower Park.
 
“We were delighted by the overwhelmingly positive response to the Boost Nassau Resource Center - an all-encompassing one-stop shop where residents and entrepreneurs can easily access the assistance they deserve and are qualified for,” Legislator DeRiggi-Whitton said. “I look forward to continuing our efforts to bring this message directly to our communities.”
