DENVILLE TOWNSHIP, N.J. (Morris County) — More than 100 residents received health screenings and services during a community health outreach event last month hosted by the Morris County Housing Authority (MCHA), in partnership with Zufall Health Center at the Peer Place affordable housing community in Denville Township.
The initiative aligns with MCHA’s mission to provide safe, affordable housing while also connecting residents with services that support their overall quality of life.
In addition to medical screenings, the event featured complimentary meals, including hamburgers and hot dogs provided by Zufall Health. The MCHA also sponsored an ice cream truck, offering cold treats for families and children.
Zufall Health, a federally qualified health center, conducted the screenings through its mobile medical unit. Services were provided on a sliding fee scale to ensure accessibility for all residents.
The collaboration reflects a growing trend of housing and health partnerships in New Jersey. Zufall’s mobile units regularly serve schools, shelters, and public housing sites, while MCHA continues to be recognized by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development as a high-performing agency for maintaining quality housing and expanding resident services.
