Accomplishments as Suffern Trustee
As Trustee, Ellen Jaffee facilitated an
intergenerational program with seniors and local elementary
students, sponsored the creation of LEAD, a program empowering high
school students to develop their own alcohol/drug free events at the
Suffern Community Center, and led the effort to obtain a Cops Grant
for Suffern, which has enhanced community policing and safety in the
village. Jaffee initiated the Executive Task Force of the Suffern
Community Center, which created a Community Foundation, with the
goal of enabling the village to enhance programs for youth, families
and seniors. Ellen spearheaded an effort to persuade a local Pet
Food Company to improve its environmental system so as to eliminate
foul odors from permeating Suffern, introduced a law to control
arbitrary tree cutting and led the effort to protect several unique
natural resources and parks in the village.
