From the office of Assemblyman Billy Jones

Assemblyman Billy Jones (D-Chateaugay Lake) announced that construction on the Harison Place Project in Malone has begun. The project will create an affordable, mixed-use complex with 40 apartments and five commercial spaces in the Franklin County village of Malone.

“I’m excited to be here for the groundbreaking of construction for the new Harison Place Project coming to the Village of Malone,” said Assemblyman Jones. “This project was undertaken to further expand the affordable housing stock here in the North Country. The development of Harison Place will provide stable, affordable housing to families that need it most and help to revitalize the downtown area. This project will anchor the economic development and revitalization of Malone that will bring more opportunities to local residents, and I will continue to work with state agencies and our communities to bring more projects like these to our region.”

The $21.7 million project is beginning construction following demolishing five blighted buildings in the area. Harison Place will be affordable to households making 60% or less of the area median income, allowing the four-story building to be accessible to as many as possible. Of the 40 total apartments, half will be reserved for households needing individualized support services, funded through the Empire State Supportive Housing Initiative and administered by the New York State Office of Mental Health.

Plattsburgh, NY, July 19, 2022 Hudson Headwaters Health Network’s Tupper Lake Family Health, Saranac Lake Family Health, and Pediatric and Adolescent Health are officially designated as New York State Breastfeeding Friendly Practices! Currently, ten out of twenty-two Hudson Headwaters locations have achieved this designation. These practices were supported in this effort by the Creating Breastfeeding Friendly Communities (CBFC) grant at the Clinton County Health Department. 

As part of the process, the network has implemented policies and procedures such as; ongoing staff training, maintaining a chest/breastfeeding-friendly office environment and facilitating internal and external referral opportunities for mothers and infants. Hudson Headwaters promotes a culture within all of its offices that support chest/breastfeeding as the best way to feed one’s baby. 

Brooke Castine RN, MS, Northern Clinical Nurse Educator and Network Chest/Breastfeeding Champion with Hudson Headwaters, says, “This designation enables health center staff to guide and assist North Country families with chest/breastfeeding support. Our ongoing relationship with the Clinton County Health Department has helped us to prepare other centers to soon receive this distinction as well.”  Read more »
