Every New Yorker deserves access to high-quality healthcare. The #340B program ensures safety-net providers, like Callen-Lorde, can continue to be there for everyone, always. We must #Protect340B to so that hospitals and clinics across the state can keep caring for the most vulnerable communities.

What does #340B mean? It means being there for all patients, producing better outcomes and delivering a bigger impact for taxpayers. The 340B Program enables safety-net hospitals and clinics, like Callen-Lorde, to reduce drug costs for patients and reinvest in care, at NO COST to taxpayers.

We understand news like this can make folks anxious, especially among communities that were hit hardest during the last outbreak. But here’s what matters: we’ve learned a lot, we have tools that work, and staying protected is totally doable.

Callen-Lorde Community Health Center @callen-lorde.org · 26/03/2026

But that means that now is the time to make a plan to prevent mpox! If you haven’t gotten your 2‑dose mpox vaccine series, now’s a great time to check in with your provider. That 2‑dose regimen gives you solid protection, and at this moment no booster is recommended—just the standard series.

Callen-Lorde Community Health Center @callen-lorde.org · 26/03/2026

Recently, New York City reported one case of Clade I mpox—a version that can be more serious. The important thing to know: this was a travel‑related case. There’s no sign of local spread in NYC right now, and the overall risk for people here remains low.

Callen-Lorde Community Health Center @callen-lorde.org · 26/03/2026

You may have heard people saying ‘mpox is back,’ so let’s talk about what’s really going on. Starting in 2022, the U.S. and NYC experienced a large outbreak that affected the community we serve at Callen-Lorde. With the help of our community, the outbreak was brought under control.

🏳️‍🌈 Callen-Lorde’s 2025 Pride theme is #CareWithoutCompromise 🏳️‍⚧️ Pride began as a protest—and the fight continues. We’re here with affirming care, rooted in community and compassion. New patients welcome. Walk-ins + same-day appts available. Join us this #Pride 🔗 callen-lorde.org/CareWithoutC...

CARE WITHOUT COMPROMISE

Surrounding the headline are colorful circular icons with illustrations symbolizing healthcare, identity, protest, pride and LGBTQ+ symbols. These include a stethoscope, a red AIDS ribbon, raised fists, lips, bandaids, trans flags, hands holding and more.

The text reads: This Pride, we return to our roots—because Pride began as a protest, and the fight is far from over. Across the country, LGBTQ+ people—especially trans and non-binary folks—are facing relentless attacks on our rights, our bodies and our access to care. In this moment of backlash, we rise with clarity and conviction:
Our care is not up for debate.

A graphic featuring black background with four large buttons featuring a trans flag, bandaids, a person dancing or protesting, and a red ribbon. Each button is stylized and colorful.

Text reads: At Callen-Lorde, we provide Care Without Compromise—grounded in science, driven by compassion and rooted in the lived experiences of our communities.

We will not be silenced. We will not be legislated out of existence. And we will not accept a healthcare system that asks us to choose between dignity and access, safety and authenticity, visibility and survival.

No trade-offs. No exceptions.

Just care that affirms who we are, how we live and what we need to thrive.

A black graphic with buttons featuring a red ribbon, stethoscope, rainbow, lips, and other symbols of LGBTQ+ identity and healthcare.
