Suffolk, Virginia, United States City of New York Full time


Established in 1805, the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (the NYC Health Department) is the oldest and largest health department in the country.

Our mission is to protect and improve the health of all New Yorkers, in service of a vision of a city in which all New Yorkers can realize their full health potential, regardless of who they are, how old they are, where they are from, or where they live.

As a world-renowned public health agency with a history of building transformative public health programming and infrastructure, innovating in science and scholarship to advance public health knowledge, and responding to urgent public health crises

from New York City's yellow fever outbreak in 1822, to the COVID-19 pandemic

we are a hub for public health innovation, expertise, and programs, and services.

We serve as the population health strategist, and policy, and planning authority for the City of New York, while also having a vast impact on national and international public policy, including programs and services focused on food and nutrition, anti-tobacco support, chronic disease prevention, HIV/AIDS treatment, family and child health, environmental health, mental health, and racial and social justice work, among others.

Our Agency's five strategic priorities, building off a recently-completed strategic planning process emerging from the COVID-19 emergency, are:1) To re-envision how the Health Department prepares for and responds to health emergencies, with a focus on building a "response-ready" organization, with faster decision-making, transparent public communications, and stronger surveillance and bridges to healthcare systems 2) Address and prevent chronic and diet-related disease, including addressing rising rates of childhood obesity and the impact of diabetes, and transforming our food systems to improve nutrition and enhance access to healthy foods
3)

Address the second pandemic of mental illness including:
reducing overdose deaths, strengthening our youth mental health systems, and supporting people with serious mental illness
4) Reduce black maternal mortality and make New York a model city for women's health
5) Mobilize against and combat the health impacts of climate change

Our 7,000-plus team members bring extraordinary diversity to the work of public health.

True to our value of equity as a foundational element of all of our work, and a critical foundation to achieving population health impact in New York City, the NYC Health Department has been a leader in recognizing and dismantling racism's impacts on the health of New Yorkers and beyond.

In 2021, the NYC Board of Health declared racism as a public health crisis.

With commitment to advance anti-racist public health practices that dismantle systems that perpetuate inequitable power, opportunity and access, the NYC Health Department continues to work in and with communities and community organizations to increase their access to health services and decrease avoidable health outcomes.


PROGRAM AND JOB DESCRIPTION:


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 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 intensify the agency's approach to tackle big salt and sugar, big tobacco, the built environment, and other determinants of health.


The Bureau of Harlem Neighborhood Health is seeking to hire a Program Coordinator with emphasis on Harlem Health Advocacy Partners (HHAP).

The Program Coordinator will report to the Director and support with overseeing, planning, and coordinating HHAP with its contracted partners.

The Program Coordinator will also support the broader bureau and division priorities as related to Community Health Worker (CHW) programming.


DUTIES WILL INCLUDE BUT NOT BE LIMITED TO:
Support broader bureau and divisional CHW goals, including training, certification, workforce development and opportunity to undertake reimbursable activities.

Provide technical assistance to HHAP partners.

Includes connecting them to community engagement opportunities within the bureau and identifying local entities to establish relationships for outreach and/or bidirectional referrals.


Work with the Bureau of Harlem Neighborhood Health's Community Engagement team and others to assist in developing and promoting key partnerships/working relationships.


Serve as a representative to government and non-government partners, including maintaining strong working relationships with internal and external stakeholders and connecting partners as appropriate.


Work collaboratively with members of various CHECW bureaus to identify strategies to mitigate challenges experienced through technical assistance and provision of direct support.

Respond to inquiries about HHAP from community organizations, individuals and others as needed.

Support Director in HHAP oversite including scheduling meetings, taking minutes, maintaining routine workflows adhering to project timelines.
