Maimonides Health in Brooklyn, New York, Announces on November 11 a $50,000 State Public Safety Grant: Two November 6 Workshops for the Asian American and Chinese American Community Drew 250 Participants
BROOKLYN, New York City, New York, United States — Maimonides Health announced on Wednesday, November 11, that it was awarded a $50,000 grant from the New York State Department of Criminal Justice Services to support community based violence intervention programs, including community safety and crime reduction initiatives. The funding also supports community based outreach, youth engagement, research, mental health counseling and other evidence based strategies aimed at preventing violence and promoting safer, healthier communities.
Through the first round of programming funded by the grant, Maimonides is developing printed materials for community distribution, detailing personal and community health and safety strategies, and promoting healthcare, public and nonprofit support resources accessible to the community. On November 6, Maimonides hosted two workshops geared toward supporting crime prevention in Brooklyn's Asian American community at Park Asia Restaurant in Sunset Park: Protecting Seniors from Scams, presented by NYPD Officer Tony Yung, and Crime Prevention and Mental Health Support, led by Maimonides psychiatrist Dr. Liwen Ye. Participants were provided with community crime prevention resource booklets and new personal safety devices.
Janice Yang, Executive Director of Asian Community Services at Maimonides, said the workshops helped 250 members of Brooklyn's Asian American and Chinese American community in attendance recognize the signs of common health and safety issues and ensure they have access to resources to protect themselves and their families in emergencies or times of need.
According to the Asian American Federation's 2023 report, Asian American Perspectives: NYC Safety Study, cited in the announcement, more than half of Asian American New Yorkers who experienced a hate incident did not report the experience to anyone. The New York City Department for the Aging reported that nearly 15 percent of older adult respondents said they had been the victim of elder abuse or crime since turning 60, and over half of those victims did not report the crimes to police. Maimonides Health is Brooklyn's largest healthcare system, providing more than 1 million patient visits each year through three hospitals, more than 1,800 physicians and more than 80 community based practices and outpatient centers.
