Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) Long Island Region President Nick LaMorte posing with CSEA member Larry D'Angelis who received the Martin Luther King Jr. Community Service Award at the eighth annual Martin Luther King Jr. Ceremonial Brunch held on Long Island, New York. LaMorte remarked that CSEA stays strong because its diversity is the foundation of its strength and that CSEA will continue to strive to make the dream that Reverend King envisioned a reality for each and every member of the CSEA family. Hundreds of union members and community supporters turned out for the Nassau County event, which was among several held statewide to honor the memory of the slain civil rights leader and to commemorate Black History Month. The CSEA is New York State's largest union.
