The Center for Health Equity & Community Wellness (CHECW) uses a racial and social justice approach to eliminate health inequities for those who are most marginalized in New York City and to reduce overall premature mortality from the leading causes of preventable death with the vision that every New Yorker will live in a thriving neighborhood with equitable access to resources that help support healthy individuals and communities. This Division unifies and strengthens the Department's lines of work directed at eliminating racial inequities for preventable health conditions, which are rooted in historical and contemporary injustices and discrimination, including racism. CHECW's aim is to eliminate racial inequities resulting in premature mortality, with a focus on chronic disease, by addressing the social and environmental factors that impact health. The goal of this renewed approach is to increase placed-based investments in priority neighborhoods with community programming and services based on epidemiology; influence and leverage the health system to promote whole-person care; and intenstify the agency's approach to tackle big salt and sugar, big tobacco, the built environment and other determinants of health. The Bureau of Finance, Administration and Services (BFAS) is responsible for preserving, enhancing, and supporting CHECW's financial, physical, and human resources, operating from a centralized, customer-oriented, and service-based model. This Bureau will create linkages between CHECW and other Divisions and utilize resources for CHECW in an efficient manner. BFAS manages shared resources and includes the Office of Health Insurance Services (OHIS). OHIS provides community-facing programs and on-the-ground programmatic work that maximize health insurance coverage opportunities and increase access to healthcare and social support services for all New Yorkers.
