NY Noodletown Shuttered by Health Dept.

Imagine my horror walking by NY Noodletown this afternoon at 430. Having skipped lunch, I had my heart set on some ginger scallion noodles and maybe a serving of roast duck. As I approached, the gate was being lowered. Upon closer inspection, the dreaded DOH edict: CLOSED!

    What the heck is “mental hygiene?” – what a STRANGE term.

    It is a very bizarre term. Since you asked (per the DOH web site):

    The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, Division of Mental Hygiene (Division or DMH), under the City Charter and in accordance with State Mental Hygiene Law, is responsible for administering, planning, contracting, monitoring, and evaluating early intervention services for children under three years old who have a developmental delay or disability, and community mental health, mental retardation, and chemical dependency services within the City of New York. In addition, DMH plans and collaborates with other City agencies to provide a variety of uniquely targeted programs, including those for individuals who are homeless or who have co-occurring disorders.
