The New York City Health Department announced the reopening of the Family Wellness Suites at its Neighborhood Health Action Centers — offer birthing people and their families a comfortable, safe and welcoming environment where families can participate in a wide variety of parenting and birthing classes, connect with community resources as well as receive critical childcare supplies like car seats.
“When families do well, our city does better,” said Mayor Eric Adams. “That’s why our administration is committed to ensuring that all new parents have the tools and support they need to take care of themselves and our youngest New Yorkers. Family Wellness Suites give parents-to-be the skills they need to thrive on their journey and I’m thrilled that we are reopening these suites to serve families across the city.”
