Tourists and even many New Yorkers know the Bronx only for its well-worn attractions: Yankee Stadium, the Bronx Zoo and botanical gardens, and the delicious Italian food of Arthur Avenue.

But the vibrancy and beauty of The Bronx runs much deeper. Amidst the food stands and shopping plazas, quiet streets and gritty highways, sprawling parks and industrial complexes, Bronxites from all walks of life are working together to build health, equity, and community in our borough.

The Healthy Bronx elevates the stories of these individuals and organizations. We highlight the work of policymakers and activists, community leaders and small businesses, scientists and healthcare professionals, artists and creatives, students and academics, and everyday Bronxites uplifting and supporting their neighbors and communities.

We hope you enjoy these stories! Don’t be afraid to drop us a line in the comments, on our Instagram or Twitter, or shoot us an email at healthybronxpod@gmail.com.

The Healthy Bronx is an off-shoot of The Healthy Bronx Podcast and the Bronx One Policy Group. We are also an official partner of the #Not62 Campaign. You can listen to The Healthy Bronx Podcast on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
