Resident Initiatives
 

 

The Community Health Committee is a forum that facilitates resident participation in community outreach programs. The Committee has advocated for increased residency involvement with our neighboring Washington Irving High School through the School Based Health Center, the mentoring program, the peer education program, and the high school health fair. The Committee has also coordinated health fairs at the Henry Street Settlement in the Lower East Side. The Committee is a work in progress and hopes to nurture the residency program’s commitment to its diverse and ever-growing community.
