The Healthcare Association of New York State (HANYS) featured St. Peter’s Health Partners (SPHP) in its Member Spotlight.
HANYS recognized SPHP for its recent support of a free drive-up food pantry in Lansingburgh. The event, organized with help from Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Albany, and the Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York, provided fresh meat, dairy, and produce to more than 500 Capital Region families.
SPHP is a proud sponsor of events like these, which aim to address the growing issue of food insecurity and are essential to improving care quality and health outcomes in our communities.
