Core offering

Staten Island Partnership for Community Wellness (SIPCW) is a nonprofit that provides backbone support to public health initiatives in Staten Island, focusing on the integration of behavioral and physical health across systems. It convenes partner organizations and community members to address wellness needs through programs such as the Tackling Youth Substance Abuse (TYSA) initiative, Birth Justice Defenders, the Staten Island Child Wellness Initiative, and operates free 24/7 health vending machines distributing naloxone, hygiene kits, fentanyl test strips, and condoms.

Product overview

Staten Island Partnership for Community Wellness (SIPCW) is a non-profit organization that provides backbone support to public health initiatives and focuses on the integration of behavioral and physical health across systems. Rather than offering a unified commercial product or platform, SIPCW operates a portfolio of community health programs including the Tackling Youth Substance Abuse (TYSA) initiative, Birth Justice Defenders (BJD), Staten Island Child Wellness Initiative (SI CWI), Behavioral Health Infrastructure Project (BHIP), and Partnership For A Healthier Staten Island. These programs are complemented by resource tools such as the bilingual Behavioral Health Resource Guide and the Community Check Box platform for initiative tracking. The organization serves as a convening body that brings together partner organizations and community members to address pressing wellness needs in communities with the greatest health inequities.
