The International Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship Program supports the post-doctoral research of promising young scientists who work and train in collaboration with mentors at major cancer centers in the United States and Italy. Mobile No-Cost Breast Cancer Screening Program AICF’s Mobile Mammography Program serves economically disadvantaged and medically underserved women in New York City who are age 40 and over and have not had a mammogram in the last 12 months. Many of these women have geographic, cultural, or linguistic barriers to receiving screening services and do not make annual screenings for breast cancer a priority. AICF’s mobile clinics travel to priority neighborhoods in the five boroughs to deliver mammograms, clinical breast exams, and instruction in breast self exam. The Program’s mobile nature makes it easy to access important—and potentially lifesaving—breast cancer screening services. All services are provided at no cost, regardless of health insurance status. The generous support of the following contributors is funding the Program during 2010-11: Avon Foundation Breast Health Outreach Program Jane Beasley Foundation The Council of the City of New York Disney VoluntEARS Community Fund Joy Germont Mr. and Mrs. Todd Hollander The Greater New York City Affiliate of Susan G.

The Registered Nurses at Lenox Hill Hospital were first organized into a union in 1980 by Local 1199, the Health Care Workers Union. By 1984 a number of the staff nurses were disillusioned with the representation provided by Local 1199. They considered affiliating with other unions, but ultimately decided that the best union for Lenox Hill staff nurses would be one devoted exclusively to representing them. Thus, the New York Professional Nurses Union (NYPNU) was born. The staff nurses then launched a drive to decertify Local 1199, and the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) ordered an election in December 1984. The options on the ballot included Local 1199, no union, and NYPNU. NYPNU won a majority of the votes cast and the NLRB certified the Union as the exclusive bargaining agent for staff nurses in early 1985. President Maureen McCarthy, RN, Esq., and, Vice-President Kathy Flynn, RN, Esq., lead the union while working as full-time nurses at Lenox Hill. Along with the rest of the Officers, Delegates and membership, they successfully negotiated contracts in 1985, 1988, 1990, 1992, 1994, 1997, 2000, 2003, 2006 and most recently October 2009. In 2000 Lenox Hill Hospital acquired Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital (MEETH), and the staff nurses at MEETH became members of NYPNU. For the first time, the 2003 contract explicitly included per diems RNs. Since then, Case Managers, Nurse Practitioners and Lactation Specialists have also joined NYPNU. The inclusion of all of these additional members has added to our strength. At times, NYPNU has assisted staff nurses at other hospitals in creating independent unions, including nurses at Physician's Hospital in Queens, at St. Barnabas Hospital in New Jersey and at the Kansas University Hospital in Kansas. NYPNU’s successful history provides the foundation for our future achievements. While some of the faces may change over the years, our members’ strength, dedication and solidarity remain the same. Welcome to LHH/MEETH, and welcome to your new union!
