Minority Men

To address HIV-risk among justice-involved minority men, New York City Health + Hospitals Correctional Health Services implemented a modified version of Choosing Life: Empowerment, Action Results (CLEAR), an evidence-based intervention to influence behavior. A total of 166 young (i.e., 20–29 years old) minority (e.g., non-Hispanic Black or Latinx) men at risk for HIV and incarcerated in New York City jails completed the adapted group-format intervention and corresponding evaluation assessments. Participants showed significantly improved HIV knowledge on the 18-item HIV-KQ-18 scale (mean increase = 3.11 correct, from 13.23 [SD = 3.80] pre-intervention to 16.34 [SD = 2.29] post-intervention). Similarly, participant summary scores for substance use risk, sexual risk, and health promotion improved significantly. At 90 days after jail release, participants reported improved “CLEAR thinking,” reduced risk behaviors and improved health-promoting behaviors. Health and HIV-prevention education programs implemented in the jail setting may help reduce health inequities and improve health outcomes.

Heritage Policy

PurposeThis research informs the intersection of climate and heritage policy development by examining the history of US energy policy as it relates to historic buildings, emerging policy tools to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and the implications of a changing legislative landscape on historic buildings through the case of New York City.Design/methodology/approachThis study employs a multi-method approach, including a review of US energy codes; discourse analysis of government records, energy studies, and reports related to historic buildings and energy; select research into energy-related heritage policy at the municipal level; and geospatial and statistical methods to analyze policy implications in the case study of New York City.FindingsHistoric buildings have long been afforded exemptions from energy code compliance in the US, and these waivers are widespread. Contemporary operating energy and greenhouse gas data, as well as energy justice findings about whom these waivers privilege, challenge these exemptions and signal a need for significant policy reform in light of climate change.Originality/valueThis study questions longstanding rhetoric about historic buildings being inherently green and supports the need for more evidence-based research to undergird heritage policy reform that is equitable and climate-responsive.

The City

The Court of Appeals of New York held, in Council of the City of New York u. Giuliani, slip op. 02634, 1999 WL 179257 (N.Y. Mar. 30, 1999), that New York City may not privatize a public city hospital without state statutory authorization. The court found invalid a sublease of a municipal hospital operated by a public benefit corporation to a private, for-profit entity. The court reasoned that the controlling statute prescribed the operation of a municipal hospital as a government function that must be fulfilled by the public benefit corporation as long as it exists, and nothing short of legislative action could put an end to the corporation's existence.In 1969, the New York State legislature enacted the Health and Hospitals Corporation Act (HHCA), establishing the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation (HHC) as an attempt to improve the New York City public health system. Thirty years later, on a renewed perception that the public health system was once again lacking, the city administration approved a sublease of Coney Island Hospital from HHC to PHS New York, Inc. (PHS), a private, for-profit entity.
