Who we are
StartCare℠ is a community-focused, Black-founded and BIPOC-operated organization that has been leading the way in delivering care for New Yorkers seeking health support since 1969. We provide comprehensive, culturally responsive, and compassionate care, tools, and resources for individuals, families, and communities. With a specialized focus on addiction recovery, mental health care, and biomedical research, we operate six community-based locations across New York and provide care for 3,000 to 4,000 participants each year.
