Since its founding in 1989 in New York City, New York Comunilife has grown into one of New York City’s best-respected community-based health and housing service providers.  Each year, their rich continuum of care supports the needs of more than 3,000 low-income New Yorkers.

Comunilife owns or manages 1,458 units of supported transitional and permanent housing for homeless adults struggling with HIV/AIDS, serious mental and behavioral health issues, and other chronic medical conditions.  They operate a full-service, Latino-centered, South Bronx-based mental health clinic that provides more than 20,000 outpatient visits a year;  a Latino Suicide Prevention Center to disseminate best practice prevention approaches for Latinos of all ages; through their new Mi Salud initiative, they provide and coordinated behavioral and medical care services for older adults with serious psychiatric issues. In addition, through their Medical and Psychiatric Respite program, they arrange short-term supportive housing for recently discharged hospital patients who lack appropriate housing in which to recuperate.

Comunilife, Inc. is serving as a subnetwork regional lead agency of the Nuestras Voces Network focusing on CDC’s NCCDPHP Region A, which includes Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont, and New York.
