Our Health Care Projects

New York

Providing Holistic Health Care to Families

Marginalized families living in domestic violence safe houses, homeless shelters, and public housing often cannot afford health care. Through our partner, The Floating Hospital, we help provide them with behavioral health services regardless of their insurance or immigration status.

Providing Comprehensive Care for Girls

Racial and socio-economic barriers can prevent adolescent girls from accessing the health care they need. We support no-cost, comprehensive physical, sexual, and mental health services for girls with our partner Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center.

Strengthening Local Health Systems for the Long Term

With the ongoing refugee crisis, in-country health services are often stretched beyond their capacity to address disease prevention and meet critical needs.

With our partner Medical Teams International, we work to ensure that existing residents and refugees alike, the vast majority of whom are women and youth, receive essential, life-saving care.
