It takes collaboration to protect and improve the public health of millions of people. FPHNYC’s new impact report explores how partnerships are helping NYC make progress on public health challenges such as chronic disease and mental health.
FPHNYC is the dedicated nonprofit partner of the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. We mobilize resources, manage programs, and engage community-based organizations as partners. Our collaborative model advances important population health initiatives such as HealthyNYC—New York’s bold plan to increase life expectancy to 83 years by 2030.
As New York City and local nonprofits grapple with significant cuts in federal funding, the agility and efficiency of our public-private model—which often makes it possible for public dollars to go further—have become indispensable. By connecting public resources with private funding and community expertise, FPHNYC is able to enhance and scale the health department’s programs to reach more people and have a greater impact.
To anyone who cares about the health and well-being of New York: now is the time to support FPHNYC as we partner with the Health Department and hundreds of community-based organizations in NYC to develop programs that provide millions of New Yorkers with essential public health services. We are committed to making it possible for every New Yorker to live their healthiest life.
