The STAR Program works in partnership with our patients and the community to ensure that we are offering services most needed in Central Brooklyn. The STAR Community Advisory Group (CAG) is the primary vehicle for consumer involvement in program design, implementation, and improvement.

The CAG has shaped the types of services provided by the STAR Program as well as the way these services are delivered. It has recommended specialized women’s services, substance use treatment, more appointment availability, peer coaching and education, how to improve our trauma informed care among many other medical and behavioral health services, all of which have been incorporated into STAR Program services.
