Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz has hired a new community liaison for his satellite office at the Mosholu Montefiore Community Center. Teri Colon, who replaces Joel Ramos, will staff the office, located at 3450 DeKalb Ave., on Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

As community liaison, Colon can provide local residents with assistance on a variety of issues.

“We help people get the things done that need to be done,” Colon said. “It’s a very rewarding job.”

Dinowitz, a Democrat whose main office is in Kingsbridge, represents the 81st Assembly District, which covers most of Norwood.

Colon took the liaison job after nearly 20 years as a paralegal and real estate management assistant. Her experience gave her an understanding of tenants’ rights that, she said, has already helped her sort out many tenant complaints.

She said she can help anybody who visits her office, and has already assisted people with Metrocard applications, prescription drug service, apartment repairs and letter writing. If she can’t resolve a problem, she said, she provides referrals to those who can.

“We try to help people with any issues,” she said. “You can’t fix all problems, but we try to get them the answers they need.”

Aside from her work with Dinowitz, Colon is completing her B.A. in Political Science at Lehman College, where she has earned a Lehman Scholars award. She lives on Kingsbridge Road with her two children.

Colon can be reached at the Community Center on Thursdays at (718) 882-4000 ext. 353. The number for Dinowitz’ main office is (718) 796-5345.
