Oscar Alvarado is honored
Assistant Director Oscar Alvarado of the DC 37 Political
Action and Legislation Dept. and New York State Assembly members Earlene Hooper
and Crystal Peoples were honored Feb. 15 by the Westchester Black Womens
Political Caucus.
The group cited Alvarado for his 19 years as a dedicated
labor activist working to advance the cause of social and economic justice for
working families and for serving the underprivileged and working poor
of the City of New York.
I was proud to be honored by this
highly regarded political force, he said. Like DC 37, they work to
include the needs of women and minorities as they educate the public and the political
community.
Alvarado is a member of Bronx Community Board #10. He
has also served the union and his community as a member of the Democratic State
Committee, representing the 82nd Assembly District; a member of the Board of Directors
of Co-op City, where he lives with his wife and two children; and as liaison to
the DC 37 Co-op City Community Association.
A former employee of the citys
Human Resources Administration, Alvarado has been at DC 37 since 1995 and was
promoted to Assistant Director of the Political Action Dept. in 2003. | |
