Ideas expressed do not reflect official positions of any of these organizations. Transcripts of the oral histories are held at the Bentley Historical Library, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.

NANCY CAMPBELL NANCY CAMPBELL: Can you tell me how you got to the University of Geneva for medical school? BP: In 1950 I finished college at West Virginia State College, which is now West Virginia State University. I was a member of the Reserve Officers Training Corps, ROTC, during the Korean War. I was a premed, biological science, and German major, and I knew I was going to get drafted. I even stayed an extra year to finish ROTC because I had transferred to West Virginia State College from another school. You had to be there four years to do ROTC. Although I was premed, my degree was a bachelor of NANCY CAMPBELL/ADDICTION RESEARCH/BENY PRIMM Page 2 of 56 science in education. I could either go into teaching and be a coach, because I was a basketball player, or I could end up going into the service.

  • Queens County Assessment
    Northwell Health 2019 Community Health Needs Assessment: Queens County Assessment Encompassing the following Northwell Health Hospital: Long Island Jewish Forest Hills 1 Queens County Health Indicator Status Since 2016 CHNA The 2016-2019 Implementation Plan activities have had an impact in improving and meeting New York State Prevention Agenda Objectives that were related to health disparities, chronic disease, safe environments, maternal child health, STD/HIV, vaccine preventable diseases, healthcare-associated infections and behavioral health as shown below. Since 2018, Northwell Health has delivered over 13,000 community health programs and over 22,000 health screenings. Examples of interventions that helped achieved these goals include robust chronic disease and cancer screening programs; implementation of culturally relevant evidence-based chronic disease self-management education; prevention of childhood obesity through school- based projects as well as promotion of policies and practices in support of breastfeeding; creation of community environments that promote and support healthy food and beverage choices and physical activity; elimination of exposure to secondhand smoke and prevention of the initiation of tobacco use by youth, especially among low socioeconomic status (SES) populations and the promotion of tobacco cessation, especially among low SES populations and those with poor mental health; and strengthened infrastructure to promote mental, emotional and behavioral wellbeing. However, the burden of health disparities, chronic disease, obesity and behavioral health issues is still present as demonstrated below by the indicators that have not met the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) Prevention Agenda Objectives and/or have worsened indicating the need to continue to primarily address the 2019-2024 priority agenda items of Prevent Chronic Disease and Promote Well Being and Prevent Mental and Substance Use Disorders as well as including strategies that can improve other priority areas as well.

Whether you’re a tenant, homeowner, parent, small business owner, or excluded worker, this online guide offers information about a range of services and financial support. o New York City will be extending free tax assistance to help families claim their new federal child tax credit. As an investment in the long-term recovery from the pandemic, the federal American Rescue Plan made changes to the Child Tax Credit so families get half of the fully refundable credit—worth up to $3,600 per child—as monthly payments in 2021 and the other half as a part of their refund in 1 Compiled from multiple public sources 2022. Most families will automatically receive the advance payments, but 250,000+ New York City families with more than 400,000 children need to sign up with the IRS to receive the Credit. The Advance Child Tax Credits payments began on July 15, 2021 and most New Yorkers will receive their payments automatically. However, New Yorkers who have not submitted information to the IRS need to either file their taxes or enter their information with the IRS’ Child Tax Credit Non-Filer Sign-Up Tool For more information about the Advance Child Tax Credit including access to Multilingual flyer and poster—and NYC Free Tax Prep, visit nyc.gov/TaxPrep or call 311.
