Parents like Yasmina Caleo argue that MSK's $10 million initiative fails to address significant health concerns, worsening air quality with ongoing construction in the community.
Caleo emphasized, 'If anything, they exacerbate the health concerns because they call for more construction ... the entire neighborhood already feels like a construction zone.'
She further stressed the demand for HEPA filtration systems, expressing discontentment over MSK's offer of air conditioners, stating, 'the response from MSK was, we thought, by giving you guys AC units you could just keep your windows closed.'
Caleo and FACT coalition prioritize community health, asserting, 'We were not asking for dollars; we're interested in being healthy, we're interested in our kids being safe.'
