🇵🇭❤️ Different communities. Shared traditions. One collective spirit.

Bayanihan. ʻOhana. Community.

In Filipino culture, Bayanihan represents the spirit of coming together, lending a hand, and uplifting one another. In Hawaiian culture, ʻOhana reminds us that family extends beyond blood - it is built through love, responsibility, and belonging.

These values came to life as Apicha Community Health Center, Woodside on the Move, the National Federation of Filipino American Associations, Project Barkada, Barkada NYC, Migrante New York, GABRIELA New York, TSR Kali, the Association of Filipino Scientists in America, and the New York State Assembly came together to celebrate Filipino American History Month in Jackson Heights, Queens! 🇵🇭✨

From honoring the generations who paved the way to celebrating the young people carrying our cultures forward, this gathering reminded us why in-person community events matter.

These are spaces where stories are shared, traditions are passed down, friendships are formed, and communities learn from one another.

Because building stronger communities takes more than one organization, one culture, or one generation - it takes all of us showing up for one another. ❤️

A heartfelt thank you to Woodside on the Move for collaborating with us, to our community partners, and to everyone who helped bring this celebration to life.

We also extend our sincere gratitude for the support of New York State funding administered by the Coalition for Asian American Children and Families (CACF), helping make community-centered celebrations like this possible.

Different generations. Different backgrounds. One community moving forward together. 🫶

❤️ Peace. Power. PrEP.

Let's talk about HIV - how it spreads, how it doesn't, and why knowing the facts matters.

HIV education is about more than prevention. It's about breaking stigma, challenging misconceptions, and empowering our communities to make informed decisions about their sexual health. 💪

💊❤️ ¡La PrEP también es para mujeres!

La PrEP (profilaxis preexposición) es una forma segura y eficaz de prevenir el VIH. En Apicha CHC ofrecemos distintas opciones:

💊 Pastilla diaria.
💉 Inyección cada 2 meses.
💉 Inyección cada 6 meses (dos inyecciones en una visita).

En este video, Susanne Rendeiro, enfermera de práctica avanzada y directora asociada de Medicina de Apicha CHC, explica estas opciones.

Cada persona es diferente. Consulta con tu profesional de salud para elegir la PrEP adecuada para ti.

En Apicha creemos que el idioma nunca debe ser una barrera para entender tu salud. Por eso, creamos y compartimos recursos educativos en los idiomas de nuestras comunidades. ❤️

💊❤️ PrEP is for women, too!

PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) is a safe and effective way to prevent HIV. At Apicha CHC, we offer several options:

💊 Daily pill.
💉 Injection every 2 months.
💉 Injection every 6 months (two shots at one visit).

In this video, Susanne Rendeiro, Nurse Practitioner and Associate Director of Medicine at Apicha CHC, explains these options.

Everyone is different. Talk to your healthcare provider about which PrEP option is right for you.

At Apicha, we believe language should never be a barrier to understanding your health. That's why we create and share health education resources in the languages of our communities. ❤️

Injectable PrEP is another way to prevent HIV. It offers long-lasting protection without the need for a daily pill.

There are two injectable options that work on different timelines and are approved for different groups of people. Read the slides to learn more about which one might be right for you.

Apicha Community Health Center believes HIV prevention should be flexible and accessible for everyone.

🌕🏮 Under one Harvest Moon, many communities came together.

From Chinese mooncakes and Korean makgeolli to Vietnamese lanterns, Thai Papaya Salad, New York City’s East and Southeast Asian communities brought culture, tradition, and celebration to the historic Gracie Mansion - The People’s House for the Mayor’s Mid-Autumn Festival Celebration. 🥮✨

Under one roof, elected officials, community leaders, healthcare professionals, advocates, and changemakers came together to celebrate the richness of our cultures and the connections that strengthen our city.

We were especially inspired by remarks from Mayor Zohran Mamdani Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani and Deputy Mayor for Economic Justice Julie Su, Deputy Mayor Julie Su reminding us of the importance of community, representation, and the work we do to serve New Yorkers.

For Apicha Community Health Center, evenings like this are more than celebrations. They are opportunities to strengthen relationships, share experiences, and reconnect with the communities and values at the heart of our work. ❤️

A heartfelt thank you to Mayor Mamdani and the Mayor’s Office of Mass Engagement Mayor's Office of Mass Engagement for the warm invitation and a memorable evening of cultural celebration, meaningful conversations, and community connection.

🩷 Breast health is part of your whole health.

Your primary care provider can help you understand your personal and family health history, discuss your risk factors, and recommend a screening schedule that is appropriate for you.

It is also important to know how your breasts normally look and feel. Contact a healthcare provider promptly if you notice a new lump, swelling, skin or ni**le changes, discharge, or unusual pain. Some people with breast cancer have no symptoms, so breast awareness does not replace recommended screening.

Our research highlighted breast health education needs among South Asian women in NYC. Our dedicated staff translated these resources into Bangla to help make this information accessible to Bangla-speaking community members. 🩷

🩺 Preventive care can start with a conversation.

🧘🏽‍♀️💛 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗲. 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁.

As the 𝒔𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒐𝒏𝒔 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆, taking care of your health can look like making time to slow down, move your body, manage stress, and be in community with people who understand you.

Apicha Community Health Center invites you to a series of 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝗬𝗼𝗴𝗮 𝑪𝒍𝒂𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒔 + 𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒌𝒔𝒉𝒐𝒑𝒔, offered in both English and Bangla. Yoga can support physical and mental well-being through gentle movement, breathing, rest, and mindfulness - and these workshops are also a space to connect with your neighbors, friends, and community.

At Apicha CHC, we believe healthcare goes beyond the exam room. Alongside 𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒚 𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒕𝒉 𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒊𝒄𝒆𝒔, we are creating welcoming spaces where community members can care for their bodies and minds, build connection, and feel supported.

🧠💛 Before you check your phone (like you are rn), check in with yourself.

On World Mental Health Day, we want to remind you that your morning doesn’t have to begin with notifications, emails, headlines, or everything everyone else needs from you.

Before you scroll, take a moment to ask:

💭 How do I actually feel?
🫶 What is my body telling me?
🌱 What do I need to start my day?

Maybe it’s water. Food. Sunlight. Movement. Medication. A little quiet. Connection. Or simply more rest.

The world will ask for your attention all day. Give yourself some first.

Checking in with yourself won’t solve everything, and it isn’t a replacement for mental health care. But creating space to notice how you’re doing can be a meaningful part of caring for your whole health.

So tomorrow morning, before you bring the phone in, try three things:

Ask. Listen. Choose. ❤️

Because your mind is part of your health, too.
