Key takeaway A recent survey by New Horizon Health Center revealed that clothing is a top unmet need in the community.
Families in Brownsville are struggling to afford basic necessities. A recent survey by New Horizon Health Center revealed that clothing is a top unmet need in the community. The center's findings were unexpected, as staff had assumed that other essentials would be a higher priority.
New Horizon Health Center has responded to this need by opening a Care Closet. This initiative aims to provide patients with clothing items that have become difficult to afford due to rising prices. Further details about the Care Closet and its services are available from New Horizon Health Center in Brownsville.
