POSITION: Gil Addo Harlem Health Fellowship

ORGANIZATION: The Harlem Health Initiative (HHI) at CUNY SPH

Program description: The Harlem Health Initiative (HHI) at CUNY SPH launched in February 2020, just before the COVID-19 pandemic began. At its core, HHI is a technical assistance and training program to bolster community-based organizations (CBOs). Its single aim is to improve the health and wellbeing of the Harlem community through relationship building with existing coalitions and networks of CBOs, while also ensuring CUNY SPH’s status as a community-centered institution, part of the fabric of Harlem. The Initiative prioritizes consistent community representation and engagement when considering programming and policy as opposed to integrating community perspectives only when buy-in is necessary. As a result of its footprint and suite of support, HHI has enabled the school to garner nearly $7 million in research and community program funding that directly addresses critical health issues facing Harlem, including a task-shifting program to identify mental health concerns among residents in housing projects, establishing a community co-laboratory with CBOs to establish and enhance health equity programming, and building vaccine literacy through health communications and partner training activities. The Initiative provides community organizations with up-to-date health data, supports survey work, and engages student interns in community practice. HHI also works with Harlem’s elected and government officials to educate them about health issues like food insecurity, mental health, and COVID-19 impacts, and helps them understand how legislation can be supported by CUNY SPH’s work.
