One month ago, we gathered for @HWCLI's Endless Summer Soirée on the Greens, a night of impact, connection, and celebration of the people and partnerships making a difference across Long Island. ✨
We’re reflecting on the energy, generosity, and community that made this night so special. To our honorees, sponsors, guests, partners, supporters, & the entire HWCLI community, thank you for being part of an unforgettable evening and for the work you continue to make possible.
One month later, the impact continues, in the partnerships we strengthen, the lives we touch, and the work we do together for Long Island.

We’re proud to celebrate our Benefits Enrollment Coordinator, Diana, who was recognized at @NYSSenatorMRM’s Fourth Senatorial District Hispanic Heritage Month Celebration! ✨✨
As Hispanic Heritage Month comes to a close, we asked our HWCLI team what Hispanic heritage means to them. ❤️💛Their reflections highlight the traditions, language, family values, and lived experiences that shape who they are and inspire the work they do every day.
From breaking down language barriers to building trust and helping families navigate essential services, our staff bring their cultural connections and personal experiences to the communities we proudly serve across Long Island.
As we wrap up this month of celebration, we’re proud to recognize the stories, cultures, and perspectives that make our team and our communities stronger.

It's National School Lunch Week, and we're celebrating universal free school meals and all they do for NY families. Kids can count on the food they need to focus and learn every school day, and parents have one less cost to cover. #NSLW26 #Meals4AllNY

Did your home or business sustain damage from the September 25–27 Nor’easter? NYS is asking residents to report storm-related damage to their primary residence or business through the Damage Self-Reporting Tool.

Behind every application is a person, and sometimes, having the right person in your corner can change the entire experience. For Ronald, that person was HWCLI's Healthcare Facilitated Enroller, Jasmyn.
Jasmyn guided him through every step of his Medicaid application, offering the patience, compassion, and support that helped make the process easier to navigate. Ronald’s words are a powerful reflection of the difference our Healthcare Access team makes every day.

This #TestimonialTuesday, we’re sharing a message from Emma, a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) client who worked with @HWCLI's SNAP Support Facilitator, Danielle, to regain her family’s SNAP benefits.
For Emma, the support went beyond navigating the process, it meant having someone who was helpful, communicative, and followed through every step of the way. Looking to access your SNAP benefits? Visit tinyurl.com/HWCLISNAP or call (516) 559-4453 today!
HWCLI spent #HungerActionMonth out in communities, meeting Long Islanders where they are. Throughout September, our team has been on the ground connecting with residents , sharing resources, & helping individuals & families access the nutritional support & benefits they need.
