CUNY CARES

CUNY Comprehensive Access to Resources and Essential Services (CUNY CARES) is a pilot program designed to demonstrate a new approach to integrated, comprehensive, student-centered health and social services for the 24,000 students attending CUNY’s three Bronx campuses: Lehman, Bronx Community, and Hostos Community Colleges. CUNY CARES seeks to link students to health care, mental health, food security, housing, and other essential services to improve their health and academic success. Based on the results of this three-year pilot program, which began in September 2023, successful elements will be extended to other CUNY campuses.
