International Overdose Awareness Day is August 31.

This year marks 25 years of bringing communities together to remember those lost to overdose, acknowledge the grief experienced by families and friends, and take action to save lives.

We were honored to welcome Senator Kirsten Gillibrand to Richmond University Medical Center's Wayne Zenna Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) as she toured the ongoing renovation and expansion project that will help transform care for Staten Island's most vulnerable newborns.

Thanks to $2 million in federal funding secured by Senator Gillibrand, along with support from private donors and local government partners, this $10 million project will create a state-of-the-art facility featuring private infant care bays, enhanced family spaces, and expanded clinical resources.

Each year, our Level III NICU cares for more than 500 newborns, including babies born as early as 23 weeks. These improvements will help ensure that families can continue to access advanced neonatal care close to home for generations to come.

Thank you, Senator Gillibrand, for your commitment to the health and well-being of Staten Island families.
