Access to quality healthcare should not be determined by your zip code. UWNYC's Connect2Care program is working to eliminate barriers to care for uninsured and underinsured New Yorkers, particularly in communities of color. By partnering with trusted local organizations and faith-based institutions, Connect2Care provides free preventative health services, including vaccinations, health screenings, and health education. Its digital platform connects individuals to essential health resources and helps them navigate health insurance options. This comprehensive approach empowers individuals and families to prioritize their health and well-being throughout the year. Through Connect2Care, UWNYC is advancing health equity and fostering healthier communities across the city.
