Strategic Policy Statement 2014 Melinda Katz
THE OFFICE OF THE QUEENS BOROUGH PRESIDENT Strategic Policy Statement 2014 Melinda Katz Queens Borough President The Borough of Queens is home to more than 2.3 million residents, representing more than 120 countries and speaking more than 135 languages1. The seamless knit that ties these distinct cultures and transforms them into shared communities is what defines the character of Queens. The Borough’s diverse population continues to steadily grow. Foreign-born residents now represent 48% of the Borough’s population2. Traditional immigrant gateways like Sunnyside, Woodside, Jackson Heights, Elmhurst, Corona, and Flushing are now communities with the highest foreign-born population in the entire city3. Immigrant and Intercultural Services The immigrant population remains largely underserved. This is primarily due to linguistic and cultural barriers. Residents with limited English proficiency now represent 28% of the Borough4, indicating a need for a wide range of social service support and language access to City services. All services should be available in multiple languages, and outreach should be improved so that culturally sensitive programming can be made available. The Borough President is actively working with the Queens General Assembly, a working group organized by the Office of the Queens Borough President, to address many of these issues. Cultural Queens is amidst a cultural transformation. The Borough is home to some of the most iconic buildings and structures in the world, including the globally recognized Unisphere and New York State Pavilion. Areas like Astoria and Long Island City are establishing themselves as major cultural hubs. In early 2014, the New York City Council designated the area surrounding Kaufman Astoria Studios as the city’s first arts district through a City Council Proclamation The areas unique mix of adaptively reused residential, commercial, and manufacturing buildings serve as a catalyst for growth in culture and the arts.

Project Context
PIN X735.82 Van Wyck Expressway Capacity and Access Improvements to JFK Airport Project DDR/DEIS CHAPTER 2 Project Context PIN X735.82 Van Wyck Expressway Capacity and Access Improvements to JFK Airport Project DDR/DEIS Project Context 2.1 PROJECT HISTORY As part of a post-World War II $200-million development program, and in anticipation of an increased population size, the City of New York sought to expand its highway and parkway system to allow for greater movement throughout the five boroughs. The six-lane Van Wyck Expressway (VWE) was envisioned to help carry passengers quickly from the newly constructed Idlewild Airport (present-day John F. Kennedy International Airport [JFK Airport]) to Midtown Manhattan. In 1945, the City of New York developed a plan to expand the then-existing Van Wyck Boulevard into an expressway. The City of New York acquired the necessary land in 1946 and construction began in 1948, lasting until 1953. The Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) bridges for Jamaica Station, which were originally constructed in 1910, were reconstructed in 1950 to accommodate the widened roadway. The designation of the VWE as an interstate highway started with the northern sections of the roadway between the Whitestone Expressway and Kew Gardens Interchange (KGI) in the 1960s. By 1970, the entire expressway was a fully designated interstate: I-678 (the VWE). In 1998, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ) began work on AirTrain JFK, an elevated automated guideway transit system linking downtown Jamaica to JFK Airport. AirTrain JFK utilizes the middle of the VWE roadway to create an unimpeded link, connecting two major transportation hubs in Queens.

2016 Community Health Needs Assessment
2016 COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Community Health Needs Assessment, 2016 Update Purpose of the Community Health Needs Assessment This 2016 Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) updates the CHNA completed in 2013 to meet the requirements of Section 9007 of the 2010 federal law, The Affordable Care Act (“ACA”). The ACA requires that any tax-exempt, IRS- designated 501(c) (3) hospital complete or update a publicly-available, comprehensive CHNA every three years in order to document the extent to which it understands the unique characteristics and needs of the local communities it serves, and responds to these needs by delivering meaningful and effective community benefit through clinical services and other programming. Required Components A CHNA report has five required components: 1) Definition of community served 2) A prioritized description of the significant health needs of the community 3) Transparency in the process and methods used to conduct the CHNA, including how it took into account input from the community served and prioritized community health needs 4) A description of the resources potentially available to address the identified significant prioritized community health needs 5) An evaluation of the impact of actions taken to address the significant health needs identified in the previous CHNA report (June 2013). A CHNA report is considered complete when it is adopted by a governing body of the facility and made widely available to the public. Community Served NYC Health + Hospitals serve all New Yorkers in every neighborhood in New York City regardless of their ability to pay. Addressing disparity throughout New York City, NYC Health + Hospitals is the safety-net for the uninsured and underserved in New York City.
