Meet Your Community Team
The Montefiore Einstein Community Team unites the Office of Community Affairs and the Office of Community and Population Health (OCPH) in a shared purpose: to enhance justice, equity, prosperity and well-being across our communities. By understanding the social factors that affect health—like housing and employment—we inform our initiatives and offer targeted health programs. Together, these offices collaborate to enact meaningful, lasting change.
