November 10, 2025 - 23:13

NYC Health + Hospitals’ NYC Care program has unveiled the Light the Way Truck, a mobile initiative designed to promote health care access across the city. This innovative truck will make over 30 stops at various events and high-traffic areas, aiming to reach underserved communities and provide essential health resources.

The Light the Way Truck is equipped to offer a range of services, including health screenings, information on available health programs, and assistance with enrollment in NYC Care. This initiative reflects the program's commitment to ensuring that every New Yorker has access to affordable health care, regardless of their immigration status or ability to pay.

Community members are encouraged to visit the truck during its scheduled stops to learn more about the health services available to them. The initiative not only aims to raise awareness about health care options but also to foster a sense of community engagement and support for individuals seeking medical assistance.
