Defining a NYSID Champion is easy when the individual or organization is passionately committed to influencing NYSID’s impact on a more inclusive New York for individuals of all abilities. Kevin Crosley, President & CEO at Arc Herkimer, is that visionary colleague.
Kevin has served on the Board of Directors for 15 years in the capacity of Member, Vice President, President and Past President. Most importantly, Kevin led a change charge to advance NYSID’s core business and create employment opportunities.
It is fitting that Kevin was named the 2023 NYSID Champion at the Annual Meeting on October 18, where he was feted with an award video and proclamation recognizing his outstanding and resolute service to NYSID and New Yorkers with disabilities.
Recognizing that community creates growth, Kevin thanked the entire audience for its diverse contributions to employment for those we serve. “You are the reason this program exists,” he said. “Whatever your role, whatever you do, it’s because of you that NYSID is the number one state use (Preferred Source) program in the United States.”
Thank you, Kevin Crosley, for your thoughtful leadership and dedication on behalf of tens of thousands of individuals across New York State.
