The Center for Health Equity & Community Wellness (CHECW) seeks to eliminate racial and other inequities resulting in premature mortality. With an unwavering grounding in history and structural analysis, CHECW works to increase visibility of the harm perpetuated by centuries of racist, socially unjust policy while pushing towards redress for the most impacted NYC communities. CHECW addresses inequity across community and healthcare systems in partnership with community, faith-based, and health care organizations. CHECW's work focuses on social determinants of health, including environmental and commercial determinants, and addresses both upstream and downstream factors to improve health and well-being of New Yorkers. The Bureau of Harlem Neighborhood Health (Harlem BNH) supports the agency's mission to protect and promote the health of all New Yorkers. Harlem BNH catchment area includes the entire community of Harlem, including East, Central and West Harlem as well as Washington Heights and Inwood. Harlem BNH focuses on the structural and root causes of health disparity outcomes and develop programs to address these outcomes with input from partners and residents. Addressing the social determinants of health (SDOH), is a key focus point and is enshrined in programs such as the Harlem Health Advocacy Partnership and the Asthma Counselor Program. Other Bureau offerings include a variety of programs and activities focused on the health and wellness of Harlem residents. The Harlem Bureau also houses the East and Central Harlem Neighborhood Health Action Center, which is a key part of the NYC's effort to promote health equity and reduce health disparities in the neighborhood.
