The Consulate General of Mexico has endorsed NYC Care as a crucial initiative aimed at enhancing health care access for all residents in New York City.

Since its launch in 2019, NYC Care has enrolled over 145,000 active members and facilitated more than one million primary care appointments.

The program's outreach efforts have successfully reached over one million New Yorkers, leading to significant growth in enrollment and support initiatives.

NYC Care has also provided extensive specialty care services, including 365,226 women's health appointments and 284,766 eye care appointments.

The program guarantees privacy and confidentiality while offering comprehensive healthcare services, including mental health support and low-cost medications.

Met Council CEO David G. Greenfield emphasized the collaboration with NYC Care as a means to empower vulnerable communities with essential health care information and resources.

Met Council staff conduct hourly presentations to inform attendees about NYC Care and assist with enrollment in multiple languages.

Recent events have served as a 'one-stop shop' for consular services, providing additional support such as SNAP enrollment, health insurance enrollment, crisis intervention, and family violence resources.

On November 22, 2024, NYC Care launched a health care outreach pop-up in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, in collaboration with Met Council, the Multi-Ethnic Alliance of New York (MANY), and the Consulate General of Mexico.

Jonathan Jiménez, Executive Director of NYC Care, highlighted the importance of community engagement in improving access to primary care for immigrant New Yorkers.

NYC Health + Hospitals, the largest municipal health care system in the U.S., provides essential services to over one million residents annually across the city.
