Daniel's Day: Saturday September 23, 2023
Statewide Community Building & Mental Health Awareness in Memory of Daniel Prude 

Dear ,

September 20th is Daniel Prude’s birthday. He was a father, brother, uncle, son and deeply loved by his family. Three years ago, on March 23rd, 2020, Daniel Prude was killed by RPD while experiencing a mental health crisis.

In his memory, communities across NY State will gather to honor those killed by police and advocate for the passage of Daniel’s law, a bill that would remove police as the default response to mental health crises and allow Peers/Mental health workers and EMT's to be first responders.

At the event, you'll have the chance to hear from State and municipal legislators fighting to transform how we respond to mental health crises in NY, alongside families of those directly  impacted.  You'll also have the chance to learn about mental health and wellness resources available in your community and how you can get involved in the fight! for Daniel's Law. 

Please RSVP below to let us know you'll be joining us at one of the three events. We look forward to connecting with you: 

Rochester: 9.23 | 4-7pm| Jefferson & McCree

Brooklyn: 9.23| 3-7pm | Utica & Montgomery 

Albany: 9.23 | 12-3 pm | West Capitol Park 

In Solidarity, 

Stanley, Imani, Kim & the WNY Team
