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.

Celebrating LGBTQ+ Health Day during #NationalHealthCenterWeek. Callen-Lorde has always been of, by & for the LGBTQ+ community. Our commitment is simple: #CareWithoutCompromise. We’ll continue to work to ensure that the future of healthcare is inclusive, affirming and community-driven.

A colorful collage-style graphic celebrating LGBTQ+ Health during National Health Center Week, created by Callen-Lorde. Three photos show moments from NYC Pride: people marching with signs and rainbow flags, a masked group posing with a Progress Pride flag, and paradegoers interacting joyfully across metal barricades. The background features a corkboard texture with playful LGBTQ+ and healthcare-themed stickers, including bandages, a ribbon, fists, and rainbow symbols. Prominent text reads: “LGBTQ+ Care is Our History and Our Future.” Below, a yellow box states: “From our earliest days to now, Callen-Lorde has been of, by and for the LGBTQ+ community… Today and every day, our commitment is simple: care without compromise.”

Quote reads, "We have confirmed that our plaintiffs – nine LGBTQ+ organizations providing critical services to their communities – have seen their threatened funding restored. When we fight, we win. We know the battle is far from over and there will be setbacks along the way, but the cause is too important, and the need too great, for us to lose heart."
