The Spina Bifida Association of New York State was featured on WNYT News Channel 13 in early February, highlighting ongoing advocacy efforts to improve the lives of individuals impacted by Spina Bifida.

The feature followed a press conference at the New York State Capitol in Albany, where SBANYS leaders called on lawmakers to include $250,000 in the state budget to expand programs and services for the Spina Bifida community. During the interview, Executive Director Julia Duff and Board Member Joe Slaninka discussed the organization’s mission and the impact of this proposed funding on families across New York State.
