On October 27, Senators Haywood, Muth and Cappelletti will hold a policy hearing to learn about overnight stays of children in the Philly Department of Human Services’ offices.  We also hope to learn more about the cause of these challenges and whether this is related to facility closures, limited access to hospital beds, or minor consent regarding placement.  During this hearing the goal will be DHS accountability and system reform including legislation.

The hearing will be held virtually.

On April 7th, 2022, Senators Muth, Cappelletti, Schwank, Collett, Hughes, and Santarsiero will host a hearing on the movement against sexual assault on college campus and the Governor's It's On Us package of bills designed to address this issue.

The It’s On Us campaign is a national initiative started by the Obama Administration to raise awareness about sexual assault; teaching participants that assault includes non-consensual sex, advising them on how to identify dangerous situations, empowering them to intervene, and urging them to create an environment of support for victims and survivors. 

Join Senator Cappelletti for a virtual town hall enrollment event on November 16th to learn more about the health insurance options in PA and how to enroll.
