Visit the new section on Racism, Violence and Health.NYAM IN ACTIONAt NYAM we’re champions for health equity. We tackle barriers that prevent people from living a healthy life. We do this by generating knowledge, changing systems and engaging the public.Breaking Down BarriersBy bringing together the trusted voices of East Harlem caregivers along with direct service providers, technical advisors, and elected and public officials, NYAM is creating a pathway for community residents to change the systems that do not work for their children to lead healthy lives.Learn MoreFeatured ActivitiesHealthPolicyHealth Across All PoliciesWorking collaboratively with New York State, we developed and launched the award-winning Health Across all Policies initiative and are providing technical assistance to 16 counties across the state.Learn MoreGet Out the Count: 2020 Census ToolkitNYAM launched a new toolkit to help ensure that the older New York population is accurately represented in the 2020 Census.

I participate in initiatives led by residents that use their wisdom and lived experience to activate the policy changes they deem necessary to thrive in East Harlem.”Lindsay Goldman, LMSW We re focused on creating age-inclusive environments that enable people of all ages and abilities to participate in health-promoting activities, to make social connections, and to contribute to their communities, no matter where we live. Through policy and practice change, we re working to ensure equal opportunities for a better later life. Linda Weiss, PhD I’m working with community-based organizations, healthcare providers, departments of health, and others to identify community needs and priorities—and to build the evidence base for effective programs that address key social factors, support good health, and reduce inequities. Danielle Laraque-Arena, MD, FAAP“I’m focused on addressing inequities in maternal and child health. I’m proud to be part of a forward-thinking, inclusive organization dedicated to achieving health equity for people of all ages.”Kerry Griffin, MPA By now we know that most of what drives our health happens outside the doctors’ office. My work is focused at the intersection of health care and those other factors that keep people healthy and well, like good housing, food, education and jobs. Y. Claire Wang, MD, ScD“I’m working to ensure our policymakers have the evidence they can leverage to optimize systems and conditions, so that everyone has the opportunity to live a healthy and fulfilling life.”Get InvolvedGET SOCIALFollow @nyamnyc on social to keep up with the latest news events.EXPERIENCE HISTORYContact the library and experience the wonder of the history of medicine and health.JOIN USBecome a NYAM Fellow or Member and join other leaders in health.INVEST IN HEALTH EQUITYJoin like-minded supporters who invest with their minds and hearts.More News Events As we all work together to keep the spread of COVID-19 to a minimum, and as New York City moves responsibly through the phases of reopening, The New York Academy of Medicine s public programming continues to be virtual and our Library remains closed to on-site visitors.
