NYSID MEMBER AGENCY OF THE YEAR 2020

The Arc Erie County has reimagined employment as a community model. Its custodial program has developed into an effective business solution, which allows janitorial and lawn care experts to work in state and local government settings throughout the region and receive competitive wages.

When Buffalo experienced the largest COVID-19 outbreak outside of New York City and its surrounding counties, the Arc’s cleaning program stepped up its services with enhanced sanitizing and disinfecting throughout the City of Buffalo, including transportation areas, public works, and other essential sites.

One of the workers who rose to this challenge is Amy Espinosa, who represents the Arc Erie County New York’s job opportunities and work performance as Employee of the Year.
