We would not be the borough we are today without the amazing women who break barriers, build communities, and lead with compassion, care, courage. Thank you to everyone who attended our Women’s History Month celebration and helped us celebrate the amazing women and young girls who are making a significant difference in our borough. Special gratitude also to our incredible emcee @news12bx Marissa Santorelli.

“I encourage my sisters to take their lives seriously & go get tested on time,” says Nancy—a #BreastCancer survivor & BOLD Buddy who supports other women impacted by cancer. Nancy recently visited our breast care center—a one-stop shop for screening, treatment, wellness, & more.

#MedEd is a tool to fight health disparities. Patients suffer when providers are miseducated in curriculum that refuses to build competency in health disparities its structural & social contributors SO to the @BOLD_Program who is actively doing this work in the #Bronx
At the @javawithJimmy health fair talking #CRC screening with @AndreaReid. A community member told us that he was told by his PCP that he isn’t at risk for CRC bc he has no family history and should not be screened due to risk of colonoscopy. This is how disparities are made.
