ASYLUM SEEKERS HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT POOR QUALITY
OF FOOD---DOCGO PROMISES TO FIND LOCAL VENDORS WHO WILL IMPROVE FOOD QUALITY
During the past seven weeks 46 Greenburgh student interns have been focusing
part of their internships assisting asylum seekers who are staying at an
Ardsley hotel. A picnic for the migrants was held last week. Some of the
students have been teaching migrants English. Some are involved in a food
drive.
A few weeks ago two student interns appeared before the
Greenburgh Town Board advising the Board that the asylum seekers were
complaining about the poor quality of the food--which they were told was not
eatable. We reached out to DocGo and have some good news to report:
An official at DocGo
who I spoke with today indicated that the company which is being paid to
serve the migrants will work hard to improve the quality of meals
delivered. We are looking to find
restaurants who can provide the following:
