AIRnyc's driving force is our team of Community Health Workers (CHWs). They know the communities and cultures we serve and are trusted sources. We aren’t just a phone call – we meet our clients in their homes in order to help the whole person and family.
We’re here to help.
We meet people where they live to improve health.
We approach people with cultural humility and work in the languages of the families we serve, including Spanish, French, English, Mandingo, Susu, Haitian Creole, Fulani, Soninke, Portuguese and Mòoré.
