Senator Serrano was joined by Council Member Vanessa L. Gibson, and the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance in sharing information about the free tax services available to seniors in the South Bronx. Senator Serrano, Council Member Gibson and the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance provided a free tax presentation, answered questions about city and state matters, and educated the audience on the kinds of tax exemptions and free tax services they qualify for.

"Navigating the tax season can be a difficult task for most New Yorkers, but sometimes it is especially hard for some of our most vulnerable communities, like our Senior population. Special thanks to my friend and colleague, Council Member Vanessa L. Gibson and the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance for helping New Yorkers receive the refunds that they deserve."
