The Bronx and Beyond
The Bronx is home to nearly 1.5 million inhabitants. Communities in the Bronx are rich in cultural and social strengths. At the same time, many residents of the Bronx face challenges that impact their health. The Bronx ranks last among New York State’s 62 counties for preventable health outcomes.
Our department is committed to improving the health of the Bronx through models of excellence in clinical services and community health, and to promoting the health of communities regionally, nationally, and internationally through training programs and research.
