Last week, our leadership team stepped away from the day-to-day to focus on what matters most, YOU! We came together to do the kind of internal work that doesn't make headlines but makes everything else possible: how we communicate, how we collaborate, and how we hold ourselves accountable to the people we serve. That kind of work takes intention. It takes investment. And it takes a team willing to do it together. We're grateful for the community that trusts us with their care. That trust drives everything we do, including the work you don't always see.

More to come. We're just getting started.

Community health centers started in 1965 as part of President Johnson’s War on Poverty, designed to bring primary care to communities that had been left out. We’re proud to carry that mission forward in Brownsville and East New York.

Love is a doctor on her way home who stops when she sees someone in need. This week, our Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Camille Taylor-Mullings noticed an unconscious man outside our facility. She ran back inside, called a Code Blue, and our clinical team responded within moments, saving a life. That's what love looks like at BMS. Not just on Valentine's Day, every single day. To our amazing clinical team: we love you. Our community loves you. Happy Valentine's Day! ❤

Black History Month is about systems, not just stories. The health disparities facing Brownsville and East New York today are the result of decades of decisions that shaped who had access to care and who didn’t. Community health centers like ours were created in response to that history. They are not symbolic. They are structural.

Protecting community-led care is part of honoring Black history in real time. Health equity isn’t abstract. It is built, defended, and sustained by this community, by our community.

Don't let the year end without making sure access to healthcare remains unshakable in Brownsville.

This year, we've heard the worry: fear of losing insurance, fear of not being able to afford care, fear of what happens when access disappears.

BMS removes that fear. Whether our patients are insured or uninsured, we are here. We don't turn anyone away.
