Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso has allocated $11 million in capital funds toward a new “state of the art” birthing center at NYC Health+Hospitals/Woodhull Hospital in Bedford-Stuyvesant.

“Regardless of intention or passion, one person can’t enact long-lasting solutions without the support of a small army that’s just as passionate and has the expertise to see those impactful changes through,” Reynoso said when the funding was announced on July 19. “I found a true partner in my fight against maternal mortality inequities in our city’s public health system.”
