Thousands of individuals find themselves homeless in greater Boston every year. Among them are chronically ill adults, veterans, families, youth, and the elderly. They are the people who stay in emergency shelters or motel rooms, eat in soup kitchens, or visit drop-in centers. They are also the men and women who find themselves on the streets, trying to survive in makeshift shelters under bridges, down alleyways, and behind city buildings. Over 11,000 homeless individuals are cared for by Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program each year. We are committed to ensuring that every one of these individuals has access to comprehensive health care, from preventative dental care to cancer treatment. Our clinicians, case managers, and behavioral health professionals work in more than 45 locations to deliver the highest quality health care to some of our community’s most vulnerable—and most resilient—citizens. BHCHP provides care without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, disability, veteran status, military service, national origin, immigration status, genetic information or marital status.Stories
from the Shadows: Reflections of a Street Doctor _by Dr. Jim J. O'Connell_ Dr. O'Connell’s collection of stories and essays, written during thirty years of caring for homeless persons in Boston, gently illuminates the humanity and raw courage of those who struggle to survive and find meaning and hope while living on the streets.

THE VAN VS. AN OPIOID ADDICTION: TAKING TREATMENT TO THE STREETS That bridge includes a physician and an oversized white van that parks daily in one of four overdose hot spots around Boston. The Care Zone van, funded by the Kraft Center for Community Health at Massachusetts General Hospital and the GE Foundation, is one of a half dozen or so projects across the country testing models for this theory: If the U.S. wants to end the opioid epidemic, it must make treatment asavailable as drugs.
The Care Zone team pairs veteran outreach workers with a doctor and a case manager. Ribeiro and Mackin, veteran street workers, typically make the first contact with an occupied sleeping bag. Dr. Jessie Gaeta, chief medical officer with the Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program, approaches once it’s clear that a new face won’t send the person back into hiding. She knows many of these prospective patients feel shunned by mainstream medicine. "We’re trying to let people know we’re not there to arrest them. We’re not there to clean up their encampment and kick them out," Gaeta says. "All we want to know is, do we have something you need and want, and if we do, great, here it is. And so we gradually build a relationship that way."Read More

We were thrilled to welcome several of our friends to volunteer at HER Saturday this past weekend, Boston Red Sox wives Erin Bradley, Lakyn Holt, Tiffany Price, and Theresa Simunovic. HER Saturday is a weekly health clinic specifically for women. Our friends from the Red Sox gave out baseball hats, led bingo, and helped with watercolors and beading. The fun activities help women relax and feel safe, establishing trust so they feel comfortable enough to make an appointment with the case management, health care, or behavioral health staff who sign up to work on Saturdays. A huge THANK YOU from all of our HER Saturday patients, staff and volunteers for making this an extra-special day in an already special clinic! Read moreLike us on Facebook
