CAMBA, the New York Youth Alliance and students of PS 139 marched in Ditmas Park Wednesday, May 9 to protest afterschool program cuts from the city’s 2013 budget.

“You can count on my steadfast support,” Councilman Mathieu Eugene told students, parents and other supporters who stopped in front of the Cortelyou Road branch of the Brooklyn Public Library, holding signs that read “Save CAMBA” and chanting, “What do we want?

“I’m proud to be here to show you my support,” Eugene continued. “I’m going to fight for you.”
