Where You’ll Work

Be at the frontier of universal healthcare with NYC Health + Hospitals, which is increasing access to its neighborhood health clinics in conjunction with New York’s ground-breaking NYC Care program. NYC Care connects all New Yorkers who are ineligible for health insurance, including undocumented residents and those who cannot afford insurance, to reliable care. These outpatient, neighborhood-based primary care clinics are operated by NYC Health + Hospitals.

Where You’ll Live

The Bronx, northernmost of New York City’s five boroughs, is known around the world as the home of the New York Yankees, the Bronx Zoo and the New York Botanical Garden. You can find a mouth-watering array of restaurants along Arthur Avenue and a treasure trove of maritime history on City Island. You could spend hours exploring the thousand-plus acres of Van Cortlandt Park, a wooded haven of cross-country trails and picnic areas beside a scenic freshwater lake.

Who You’ll Work For
