The Far Rockaway Trauma Healthcare Access Task Force was established to enhance trauma healthcare in the Rockaway community, which lacks a local trauma care center. Led by NYC Council Member Selvena N. Brooks-Powers and NYC Health and Hospitals President Dr. Mitchell Katz, the Task Force brings together community leaders monthly to improve reliable and accessible trauma care for Rockaway residents.
