The East New York Health HUB
The Institute for Community Living (ICL) East New York Health HUB represents ICL’s commitment to a whole health approach to wellness. The site addresses all social, economic, and personal factors that impact well-being. ICL’s goal at the East New York Health HUB is to provide comprehensive, integrated services that meet the community’s full range of primary health and behavioral health needs.
Located on the border of East New York and Brownsville, in Brooklyn, this innovative facility provides children, adults, and families with a continuum of 25 programs that address long-standing health disparities in a community that is home to large Latinx, African American and Caribbean populations. This area has historically had high rates of poverty, food insecurity, and violence, which have led to poor health outcomes—including elevated rates of obesity, diabetes, hypertension, substance use disorders, behavioral health-related hospitalizations, and more.
