January is Thyroid Awareness Month, and it’s a great time to check in on your health as we start a new year. The thyroid may be small, but it plays a big role in how your body works—affecting energy levels, metabolism, heart health, mood, and more.

Millions of people live with thyroid conditions and don’t even know it because symptoms like fatigue, weight changes, anxiety, or feeling unusually hot or cold can be easy to overlook. That’s why preventive care and regular check-ups are so important.

As we focus on healthy beginnings this year, remember to listen to your body and speak with your healthcare provider if something doesn’t feel right. Early detection can make a meaningful difference in long-term health and well-being.

Your health matters! BCHN encourages you to start the year informed and empowered.

A new year is a great time to focus on your health—and we’re here to support you every step of the way.

Preventative care helps you stay healthy, catch concerns early, and take control of your well-being. From annual checkups and screenings to mental health services and wellness support, these visits help protect what matters most: you and yours.

When we prioritize preventative care together, we strengthen our families, our neighborhoods, and our community. Our goal is to make care accessible, proactive, and centered around your needs—because a healthier future starts with prevention.

This year, let’s take care of ourselves and each other.

This December, we recognize the International Day of Persons with Disabilities and honor the strength, contributions, and dignity of people with disabilities in our community and around the world. More than 1.3 billion people globally live with a disability, reminding us how important it is to remove barriers and create spaces, especially in health care, where everyone can fully participate. Together, we can build a more accessible, respectful, and inclusive health system where every person feels heard, supported, and valued.

🌿 Eat Healthier, Exercise More: Live an Optimal Life!

On September 9th, our BCHN team hosted another “Eat Healthier, Exercise More: Live an Optimal Life!” session with a community walk from Montefiore Family Health Center to Poe Park. Led by Health Educator Pedro Gonzalez, participants enjoyed movement, connection, and a wellness discussion on nutrition and physical activity. Let's not forget to mention all participants were given Health Bucks – $2 coupons provided by the NYC Health Department to encourage the purchase of fresh fruits and vegetables at the Poe Park GreenMarket.

👉 Want to join the next Farmers Market Walk? Check out our Calendar here: https://www.bchnhealth.org/events/ or contact Pedro Gonzalez at pgonzalez@bchnhealth.org for more information.

Every June, we take time to recognize Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month—a moment to reflect on the impact of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. With millions of people affected worldwide, this month is about more than awareness; it’s a call to action. From early detection to caregiver support, it’s an opportunity to educate ourselves and others on how we can make a difference.

Mental Health Awareness Month is a time dedicated to breaking the stigma, raising awareness, and encouraging open conversations about mental well-being. It’s a powerful reminder that mental health is just as important as physical health—and that seeking help, support, and self-care is a sign of strength, not weakness.
