Fund for Public Health in NYC is Hiring an Evidence Based Program Coordinator for Schools Near Brooklyn, NY
The Fund for Public Health in New York City (FPHNYC) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the health and well-being of all New Yorkers. To this end, in partnership with the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), FPHNYC incubates innovative public health initiatives implemented by DOHMH to advance community health throughout the city. It facilitates partnerships, often new and unconventional, between the government and the private sector to develop, test, and launch new initiatives. These collaborations speed the execution of demonstration projects, effect expansion of successful pilot programs, and support rapid implementation to meet the public health needs of individuals, families, and communities across New York City.
Program OverviewNYC Department of Health & Mental Hygiene is committed to helping create a world where all New Yorkers can safely express their sexuality and gender identity with dignity, possessing the knowledge, skills, and resources to support healthy and fulfilling lives.
New York City Teens Connection (NYCTC) is an adolescent sexual health program of the Bureau of Maternal, Infant, and Reproductive Health (BMIRH) in the Division of Family and Child Health within the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH). NYCTC is an expansion of Bronx Teens Connection , scaling up this successful community-based model to reach more youth throughout NYC. By engaging youth, parents, community-based organizations, schools, clinics, and citywide government agencies in a comprehensive effort to improve adolescent sexual health, NYCTC will help youth in NYC learn about their sexual and reproductive health, access the information and resources they need to make healthy decisions and feel empowered to act on these decisions.
Poor health outcomes rarely occur in isolation, and specific communities tend to face multiple health inequities. These unfair, unnecessary, and avoidable disparities are rooted in historical and contemporary injustices and discrimination – including racism – and require the investment of attention, resources, and deliberate corrective efforts to repair. As part of BMIRH, NYCTC strives to apply a sexual and reproductive justice and racial justice framework that prioritizes individual choice and bodily autonomy within historical events, lived experiences, sexualities, and social conditions, ensuring we fully engage community partners to move this work forward. NYCTC is also part of a larger health department effort to advance just and fair outcomes for all New Yorkers, particularly those most marginalized. It prioritizes neighborhoods with histories of social disinvestment and persistently poor health outcomes.
NYCTC works through partnerships and existing systems to bring evidence-based sexual health education programs and clinic linkages to young people ages 11-20 across several priority neighborhoods with histories of social and economic disinvestment. NYCTC reaches young people with sexual health education across four settings . Reducing the Risk, recommended by the NYC Department of Education (DOE),will be delivered in traditional high schools; Teen Health Project will be delivered in transfer and international high schools and select youth-serving organizations; Making Proud Choices will be delivered in middle schools; Positive Prevention Plus for Special Populations will be delivered in District 75 schools; Seventeen Days and Plan A will reach youth in clinics, schools, and youth-serving organizations, including foster care agencies and juvenile justice programs; and Sexual Health and Adolescent Risk Prevention reach youth in a variety of youth-serving organizations. All partnering schools and youth-serving organizations will also be linked to local “teen-friendly” clinics that provide high-quality sexual and reproductive health services to young people; instructors will incorporate a visit to the linked clinic within each evidence-based program. The Linking Families and Teens curriculum will reach adolescents' parents through partnerships with school-based Parent Coordinators and various parent groups. They will be provided with education and support to improve their communication with youth around sexual and reproductive health. Building on relationships between DOHMH and community organizations, local leaders, and other stakeholders, NYCTC has established local Community Advisory Teams and Youth Leadership Teams in 3 boroughs that inform the program work, encourage systems-based changes, and help disseminate information throughout the priority communities. Lastly, an evaluation plan that regularly monitors key processes and outcome measures for each component will provide the basis for continual improvements.
Position OverviewNew York City Teens Connection (NYCTC) offers an exciting, unique opportunity for a public health professional to work on an innovative project to engage with teachers and other school leaders, teens, parents, community leaders, clinical services providers, and other stakeholders who work with teens. The overall project aim is to foster an environment where all teens develop the skills and have the tools needed to make informed choices about their sexual and reproductive health and know where to go for health services.
