Community

In the fall of 2015, NYU partnered with Housing Works and the Hearts of the World project (heartsoftheworld.org) to offer a painting workshop for local children. NYU Community Engagement hosts free and public events for children each year.

NYU Government Affairs links elected officials (like Council Member Fernando Cabrera, left) to initiatives like the Smiling Face, Going Places van, which has brought free oral health preventative care and educational programs to over 20,000 NYC kids since 2000. NYU's College of Dentistry offers free exams, workshops, health fairs, and other resources to NYC parents and children year-round.
