Stronger Downstate

As New York City’s only public academic medical center, SUNY Downstate has dedicated the last 160 years to training a diverse, world-class healthcare workforce, advancing biomedical science through cutting-edge research, and providing high-quality care. While SUNY Downstate students, staff, and alumni continue to tackle systemic health disparities in Brooklyn and beyond, years of financial instability, and a hospital facility in disrepair have jeopardized the short-term viability and long-term success of our hospital facility. We are launching a process to transform our institution and build a sustainable and healthy future for generations to come–with a vibrant, thriving medical school at its core. Through a realistic community-centered, forward-looking, sustainable approach, the new Downstate will be better equipped than ever to meet the challenges of the moment we live in. Offer your support and be a part of creating a healthier future for New York residents.
