Now that the storm has passed and the damage continues to  be assessed, the state has initiated the arduous process of recovery.  This is an incredible effort and recovering from this kind of storm,  especially flood damage, has required New Yorkers from every region to  assist the hardest hit areas with resources and aid.<\/p>\n<p>We  all know the value of volunteering and many of your campuses already  have efforts underway to give our students the opportunity to assist our  neighbors and communities in their time of need. To that end, we would  like to get the word out to our faculty, staff and students across the  system that they can find these opportunities via the following link:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.governor.ny.gov\/laborforyourneighbor\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.governor.ny.gov\/laborforyourneighbor<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Through  this website, individuals can sign up to join the Storm Recovery  Volunteer Team. The National Guard and the State Office of Emergency  Management (SEMO) are managing this effort, and a representative from  their team will contact prospective volunteers to let them know how to  pitch in.<\/p>\n<p>Please  share link with your faculty, staff and students.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s  rally around our communities across the state to speed this recovery  and give our neighbors a return to normalcy. Thank you for joining me in  this effort.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy Zimpher<br \/>\nSUNY Chancellor<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Published:<\/strong>\u00a0Thu, 08 Sep 2011 11:00:48 +0000 by\u00a0d.gardner<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; In a recent letter to all Presidents in the SUNY system, Chancellor Nancy Zimpher wrote: Most of you have&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2086,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2522","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-campus-announcements"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2522","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2086"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2522"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2522\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2522"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2522"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2522"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
