  Mr. TOWNS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to highlight the contributions 
of Susan Pinto who was born and raised in Brooklyn. Susan is that rare 
person who travels to the beat of a different drummer. She attended 
parochial elementary and secondary schools, and graduated from Brooklyn 
College. After completing college, she began performing drug-free 
treatment work. Susan helped design and open treatment and prevention 
programs in East New York, Brownsville, Bed-Stuy, Sheepshead Bay, and 
Canarsie. She is a certified substance abuse counselor [CSAC].
  Susan is a woman of commitment to everything she is involved in, 
particularly her immediate, extended family, and circle of friends. Her 
other endeavors include work in real estate sales and management, 
construction, and 
[[Page E541]] development. Susan Pinto is a member of the Rosetta 
Gaston Democratic Club, and the interfaith auxiliary. I am proud to 
commend her to my House colleagues.
