Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! This year, we’re embracing the theme “Pioneers of Change: Shaping the Future Together.” Instead of highlighting individual pioneers, we’re focusing on the impactful role that Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) like CHN play in making healthcare more accessible to Hispanic communities that often face significant barriers to care. At Community Healthcare Network (CHN), we are committed to driving change through compassionate care, reducing healthcare disparities, and empowering the communities we serve. #HispanicHeritageMonth #HealthcareAccess #HealthEquity

"For the last 15 years, CHN has been providing free HIV testing at Union Square to raise awareness about HIV testing. Every year, more agencies get involved, and this week we had over 50 organizations providing HIV testing under the NYC-DOH Prevention Services. CHN was awarded the 2024 HIV/STI Heroes Award. Kudos to the ID/LGBTQIA+ team managers who did the outreach and testing. Thanks to the Mobile Team for another year of collaboration." – Freddy Molano, VP ID/LGBTQIA+ Programs #HIVAwareness #Community #Outreach

With #AANHPIMonth drawing to a close, we conclude the final week by spotlighting the outstanding achievements of Dr. Marjorie Mau. Dr. Marjorie Mau is a pioneering figure in medicine and a proud Native Hawaiian. She is the first Native Hawaiian woman to become board-certified in endocrinology, diabetes, and metabolism. In 2012, Dr. Mau conducted groundbreaking research on metabolic disorders among Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders. Her work addresses health disparities in Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander communities, emphasizing the importance of equitable healthcare access. In 2016, she made history as the first Native Hawaiian woman to be recognized as a “Master” physician by the American College of Physicians, joining a distinguished group of faculty physicians at the University of Hawaiʻi to achieve this rank. #AAPIHeritageMonth #HealthEquity #AAPIExcellence
