Health of Asians and Pacific Islanders in New York City (2021)
A 2021 report released by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (NYC DOHMH) detailing the “Health of Asians and Pacific Islanders in New York City.” This report is a collaborative effort stemming from many years of collective advocacy from community-based partners who contributed their time, knowledge, and experience to support the planning and review to create a report that presents useful data for Asian American and Pacific Islander communities. The Health Department worked with a group of 21 partners, including community-based organizations, service providers, and academic researchers on this report, which helps make plain the different histories, health-related experiences, and needs of NYC’s various Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.
