We believe that the power to influence change to advance health starts with centering community voices in our research, policy and programs. While we already have robust community-outreach in place at NYAM to incorporate community voices into much of our research and programs, we are dedicated to growing this part of how we work. From increasing the size of existing advisory programs (see NYAM Advisors) to collecting and sharing real-life stories of community members doing their best to be healthy, and to highligh the systems and barriers that get in their way.

Watch this space for a new opportunity to add your thoughts on health and to help create a tapestry of real stories and real needs.
