COMPANY OVERVIEW:

Public Health Solutions (PHS) is a 501(c)3 non-profit community-based organization (CBO) that has existed for 70 years to improve health equity and address health-related social needs (HRSN) for historically underserved marginalized communities. As the largest public health nonprofit serving New York City, we improve health outcomes and help communities thrive by providing services directly to vulnerable families, supporting community-based organizations through our long-standing public-private partnerships, and bridging the gap between healthcare and community services. We focus on a wide range of public health issues including food and nutrition, health insurance, maternal and child health, sexual and reproductive health, tobacco control, and HIV/AIDS.

PHS administers WholeYouNYC (WYNYC), a coordinated community resource network that builds trustworthy and reliable pathways between healthcare providers, health plans and CBOs providing critical resources in the community that address the social drivers of health. WYNYC brings together over 100 organizations offering various programs – such as food, housing, employment, health insurance, and sexual health services – across all five boroughs. These services and programs make it possible for New Yorkers to live their healthiest lives and ultimately reduce health disparities and advance health equity. To date, our network has already impacted thousands of lives through community partnerships and referrals, generating millions in estimated healthcare savings.
New York State (NYS) recently announced the availability of $500M statewide to support Social Care Network (SCN) lead entities responsible for coordinating social care delivery in various regions across the state. Public Health Solutions (PHS) and our WYNYC network were awarded the role of regional SCN for Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens.
