  • SPEAK UP Cortland: Talking with loved ones can save lives (audio)
    On today’s Meet Cortland County:

    Patricia Schaap and Samantha Adams co-chair the local suicide prevention coalition, SPEAK UP Cortland.

    Schaap serves as the local SPOA coordinator (Single Point of Access) and director of Youth Prevention Services.

    Adams is project coordinator at the Cortland LGBTQ Center.

    The coalition launched in September 2020 to address high rates of self-harm in the county, particularly among youth and middle-aged men. Data from 2019 found an estimated 15-percent of residents reported having depression.

    More than 50% of people will need mental health treatment at some point in their lives. This concern has only grown during the stressful times of the covid-19 pandemic.

    A variety of resources are available for those who may be struggling.

      Village trustee Tim Daley delved into topics including LED light installation, traffic studies on Route 281 and updates on sewer/water infrastructure projects.

      He also had some exciting news on the neighborhood basketball courts, located behind the fire department on Main Street.

      Even more, around $10k will help renovate the courts in a project that could include resurfacing and new backboards.

    • Local artist discusses “Flocking for Hope” project in Homer (audio)
      On Saturday’s Meet Cortland County:

      Local artist Liz Sharp discussed the “Flocking for Hope” display currently up on the Homer village green.

      A variety of organizations, individuals and classrooms came together and folded thousands of paper cranes in honor of loved ones and essential workers; as well as to express wishes for peace and unity.

      Over 5,000 paper cranes ended up being made.

      “The Homer and Cortland communities showed they are willing to rise for the cause,” said Sharp. “This pandemic has brought all of us down — now we have to lift each other back up and turn the negatives into positives.”
