Center For Great Expectations To Receive $1.5 Million From State

Mayor Phil Kramer, Assemblyman Joe Danielsen, Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin and Center for Great Expectations CEO Peg Wright, left to right, talk during the lawmakers’ tour of the Center.

Leaders at the Center for Great Expectations – the group that provides services for expectant women at risk and women recovering from substance use, and their young children – thought they were losing $1 million due to a cutback in federal funding.

Enter state Assemblyman Joe Danielsen, Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin and Mayor Phil Kramer.

A successful lobbying effort by the trio resulted in a $1.5 million allocation for the Center being added to the state’s 2023 budget.
