Who We Are: CAMBA is a community of staff, volunteers, clients, donors, neighbors and partners who work together to build an inclusive New York City, where all children and adults have access to the resources and supports they need to thrive.  We take a comprehensive approach by offering more than 160 integrated programs in:  Education & Youth Development, Family Support, Job Training & Employment Support Services, Health, Housing, and Legal Services. We reach more than 65,000 individuals and families each year at our 90 locations, including 10,000 youth.  CAMBA serves a diverse cross section of New Yorkers from new mothers in Brownsville to job seekers in the Rockaways. More than half of our clients are immigrants and refugees from around the globe. Over 85% of our families are in living in poverty, reflecting the challenges faced by nearly 1.7 million New Yorkers today.

　　CAMBA Care Connections (SDOH Pilot): CAMBA is partnering with NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital (NYPH) in a pilot program focused on connecting NYPH patients to services that address a variety of social determinants of health (SDOH). NYPH refers “risking risk” patients, who have at least one social need and two emergency room visits in the past year to CAMBA Care Connections to connect them to care. This pilot program prioritizes needs related to food, transportation and housing, but other SDOH may be identified and addressed as well. The pilot program will be entering its second year this Spring and consists of a full-time Program Manager and Case Manager. This is a unique and exciting opportunity to work with CAMBA and NYPH to develop an efficient closed-loop referral and linkage system.
