We are using the Discord platform for text (voice, and video) chat, please join us here, and ask to be added to the local group if you edit in our region.

The conversations are segmented by areas, and topics. For New York state there is a general state channel, and then three local channels; #ny_state_east, #ny_state_west, and #ny_greater_nyc_li. This image indicates the general division for the local channels.

Google Hangouts link to this section

We used to use Google Hangouts heavily in this region for real time communication. We have since transitioned to the Discord platform discussed above due to its many more features, and technical limitations of the Google Hangouts platform.

For those who have access security issues, and can not access the discord platform, please reach out to one the state managers, and/or (Assistant) Regional Coordinators for an alternate access through Google Hangouts.
