HIV Women's Center Grows In Brooklyn When Housing Works’ Rosalie Canosa sliced through a giant red ribbon in a crowded basement cafeteria on Friday, 150 onlookers erupted in cheers to welcome the Women’s Health Center to downtown Brooklyn. But future clients stopping by to take a peek at their new digs were the most excited of all. “It’s an oasis for us,” said 61-year-old Chardelle Free, who will be showing up several times a week along with two dozen other clients when the Center opens its doors on September 1. “This is truly a gift.”
