Dear Colleagues,
At the end of March, 164 applications were forwarded for award recommendations, spending down almost all this year’s allocation. 12 applications were declined an award due to the event/activity being non-fundable or outside of the award time period.
We are still waiting for final approval from the New York State Office of Employee Relations (OER). As requested, we hope to have a decision by NYS OER by 5/15/25.
In Solidarity,
Ken Kern
