Bedford Stuyvesant Family Health Center Inc.

Bedford Stuyvesant Family Health Center Inc. (BSFHC) is a non-profit, federally qualified health center established in 1978 and located in Brooklyn, New York. Operating across seven Brooklyn zip codes, the organization provides comprehensive healthcare services to over 60,000 patients annually, offering family medicine, pediatric care, behavioral health, and specialty care through four health centers and school-based health centers. BSFHC's mission is to provide quality services to clients in medically underserved communities, focusing on addressing healthcare barriers and promoting health equity for populations facing significant social determinants of health challenges.

BSFHC has secured multiple federal grant awards from agencies like the Health Resources and Services Administration, specifically the Bureau of Primary Health Care and HIV/AIDS Bureau. These grants have supported critical healthcare initiatives, including the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part C Capacity Development Program ($150,000), which enhances HIV prevention and care services, and a Behavioral Health Service Expansion grant aimed at reducing health inequities by expanding mental health and substance use disorder treatments. Additional federal grant awards have included COVID-19 vaccination expansion, HIV prevention efforts, and infrastructure support through programs like the American Rescue Plan Act Funding for Health Centers. The organization has also received sub-awards from the New York State Department of Health, particularly for WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) Local Agency Contracts, demonstrating a multi-faceted approach to community health service delivery across federal and state-level funding mechanisms.
