NEW CITY, NY – Town of Clarkstown holds a blood drive on Monday, July 19 at Clarkstown Town Hall.

Walk-ins were welcomed and over 40 people would donate at the event. Pictured below donating is Scott Waters. The shirt Scott is wearing was created by retired Suffern Police Department Chief Clarke Osborn that raised over $11,000 for improvements to the Village of Suffern’s 9/11 memorial.

An emergency appeal for blood donors has been declared due to extremely low inventory across the nation.

Clarkstown Town Hall is located at 10 Maple Avenue in New City.

The Blue Envelope Program is a vital initiative designed to improve interactions between law enforcement and drivers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Drivers with autism can store their license, registration, and insurance in a distinctive blue envelope, which serves as a discreet way to notify officers of their condition during traffic stops.

This program helps reduce misunderstandings, lowers anxiety, and fosters a more empathetic and safer environment for everyone.

How to Get a Blue Envelope:

Reach out to autism advocacy organizations in your area or your local sheriff’s office to obtain one. Together, we can promote understanding and safety on the road!
