Mamdani announces the opening of two health clinics for young people at a ceremony that included a ribbon cutting struggle

Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced the opening of two mental health clinics for Big Apple youths Thursday at an event where he rubbed elbows with Democratic Party rivals. The clinics — which are being supported through a $4 million donation from MetroPlusHealth — will provide behavioral and reproductive care to teens and young adults aged 16-25. “We are speaking about the health of young New Yorkers who are often reluctant to seek care or who don’t have the health resources specifically tailored to their needs,” Mamdani claimed.
