"My participation in Coro's Immigrant Civic Leadership Program was integral to the development and launch of Hot Bread Kitchen. Receiving the inaugural alumni award is an immense honor for me and Hot Bread Kitchen. Being selected from a group that includes the city's most influential leaders shows that Coro really values progressive multi-sectoral thinking on persistent social problems." -Jessamyn Waldman (ICLP 2007), Coro Alumni Award Honoree

The Impact of Financial Reform on NYC
We are pleased to announce our first ever Alumni Issue Evening: Financial Reform and Its Impact on NYC. As part of our strategic plan, Coro is increasing learning opportunities for our alumni community and one of the most frequent requests was for programming similar to what you experienced in your program. This evening will be modeled on the Issue Day format used in Leadership New York: exploring a current policy dilemma, learning through inquiry, and incorporating various perspectives. New York City has long claimed the title of "Financial Capital of the World" - serving both as a source of pride and civic identity. The financial services sector is a major component of the city's economy providing more than 10% of the jobs and 30% of the wages (and 10% of city tax revenue). But with the current economic recession and the role financial institutions had in it, there is increasing pressure from Main Street to regulate Wall Street. Given all the competing interests, it is critical to step back and consider the multiple perspectives and potential impact of pending financial reform being discussed in Washington DC. During our alumni issue evening, we will explore the question "Will new financial reforms change New York City as we know it?". Join us for a panel discussion and a lively dialogue with the Coro alumni community.
This evening is hosted by The Federal Reserve Bank of New York City and Coro alumna Erica Groshen (LNY XVIII), Vice President and Director of Regional Affairs. DATE: Wednesday, June 23rd TIME: 4:15pm- Tour of Gold Vault 5:00pm- Reception with panel to follow 8:00pm-Evening concludes LOCATION: Federal Reserve Bank of New York 33 Liberty Street New York, NY 10045 COST: Free Reservations are required and space is limited.
