Winter weather can be dangerous and hard to predict in New York State. With a little planning, you can help keep yourself, your family, and your home safe all winter long.
Dress for the Cold
It’s important to dress the right way in cold weather.
Wear layers. Start with a light layer before adding warmer layers like wool or fleece. Wear a coat that blocks wind and water.
Wear a hat, scarf, gloves or mittens, and warm socks. A lot of body heat is lost through your head, hands, and feet. If you start shivering, it’s time to go inside.

Every year on the third Monday in January, we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a leader who fought for justice and equality for all. His dream wasn’t just about civil rights, it was also about making sure everyone has the same chance to live a healthy life.
Dr. King once said, “Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health is the most shocking and inhuman.” He saw that many people, especially in poor and minority communities, didn’t have access to good healthcare. He believed that health is a basic human right.
Health equity means everyone should have a fair shot

Hispanic Heritage Month is a time of reflection, celebration, and unity. For me, it is deeply personal, a reminder of the strength, resilience, and cultural pride that defines our community. It is also a call to action to honor our heritage not only with words, but through efforts that uplift the health and well-being of Hispanic families across New York and beyond.
The Hispanic community carries a powerful legacy of hard work, faith, and family. Yet, despite our many strengths, we continue to face significant health challenges. Chronic illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, and obesity are disproportionately prevalent among Hispanic populations.
