Fund for Public Health in NYC

FPHNYC and the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene are working to reduce pregnancy-associated death among Black women and birthing people in NYC by 10% by 2030.?A key step to help meet this goal is to launch – with your support – the Maternal Home Collaborative (MHC) ? Designed to address the root cause of Black maternal health inequities – structural racism – MHC, a place-based pilot, will provide a coordinated and comprehensive implementation of maternal health services, centering Black women and birthing people and their infants in all aspects of care. ? You can be an Amplifier, a Champion, or an Investor (or all three!) in support of the MHC. ? Learn more: www.fphnyc.org/mhcm/ ? P.S. Stay tuned for Black Maternal Health Week (April 11-17), as we have a full week planned around video excerpts from our recent convening and learn about how YOU can get involved to improve maternal health in NYC!

As the City reflects on five years since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, FPHNYC is grateful for all the public and private support that made possible initiatives such as the Vaccine Equity Partner Engagement Project (VEPE) and the NYC Public Health Corps. These initiatives, launched in partnership with the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and community-based organizations, helped increase vaccinations and expand the reach of community health workers to serve New Yorkers. While the COVID-19 pandemic may be well under control, government, philanthropy, nonprofits, and community organizations must continue to work together to strengthen our public health system and workforce. We need to continue the daily work of improving the health and well-being of New Yorkers, as well as be ready for the next public health crisis. ?? Read more: https://on.nyc.gov/4iMcVSb
