Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program

Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program http://www.bhchp.org

Since its founding in 1985, Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program has been guided by a simple mission - to provide and assure access to the highest quality health care for individuals and families experiencing homelessness. BHCHP is an integrated team of over 600 medical and behavioral health staff, social service providers and support staff committed to ensuring and delivering equitable and

dignified access to comprehensive, high-quality health care for individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Boston and beyond. At our 30+ clinic sites in shelters and hospitals, our medical respite program and on the streets, we provide medical care, behavioral health care, youth and family services and case management to nearly 10,000 individuals (adults and children) every year. And we serve as an innovator and thought leader at the intersection of health care and homelessness, and share our research and model of care with hospitals, medical and other allied health professional schools, public agencies and other homeless programs, locally and nationally.

Happy Nurses Week! Nurses play such an extraordinary role in the health care system, and especially here at BHCHP. Often the first and most frequent point of care and comfort for so many patients, our nurses go above and beyond – every single day – to provide the highest quality health care to our patients. Whether they are based in outpatient clinics or in our 24/7 medical respite facility or in various administrative and leadership roles, their dedication to BHCHP’s mission and the people we serve knows no bounds.

We’re lucky to be in the company of so many hardworking, resourceful, and skilled nursing professionals. Thank you for choosing BHCHP because we wouldn’t be who we are without you!

Who run the world?! BHCHP volunteers! This National Volunteer Week, we want to give a special shout-out to our amazing volunteers who generously share their time, energy, ideas, and spirit with our community. Your work makes a big dent in our ability to provide the highest quality health care to our patients, and we’re profoundly grateful for your devoted care and enthusiasm.

Our volunteers step up whenever and wherever they are needed across the program – from running a diverse array of patient activities, to organizing donation drives at their school or workplace, to assisting our clinical teams with patient care coordination, to rallying their networks to attend/donate to our events, and so much more. And of course, we can’t forget our four-legged friends who visit us every Thursday from the Healing Pups program at Boston Medical Center.

Thank you for making BHCHP a place of hope and healing for everyone!

Join us in sending wishes for good health and gentle tailwinds for our 2026 Marathon team as they take on the world’s foremost 26.2 miles tomorrow! Our staff came out in force to cheer on this year’s Team BHCHP (Pat Breen, a longtime volunteer from Liberty Mutual Insurance, and Fr. John Predmore, running his 4th Boston Marathon for us!) at our annual Pep Rally on Friday.

And although we’re sad to report that our third runner will be missing her debut at the Boston Marathon due to an injury, this selected trio have raised a high bar with their fundraising efforts! There’s still time to support them with a meaningful gift to BHCHP, if you’re able. Please click here to learn more. https://bit.ly/4bm9fUQ

Recently, we brought back the annual Employee Recognition Event and celebrated our staff’s 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, and even 40-year anniversaries alongside other outstanding individual achievements! It’s our version of the Academy Awards, but even more inspiring, and our heartiest congrats to the 100+ staff who were honored at this festive event!

For four decades, BHCHP has remained a trusted provider of lifesaving health care to our patients, and that’s been made possible by the dedicated people who choose to work here. We’re immensely appreciative of our amazing staff who go above and beyond for those we serve and the partners we work alongside.

BHCHP nurse Madeline King has been nominated to throw the first pitch during the Boston Red Sox Nurse Night event on May 13 – and she needs your vote to make it happen!

Madeline first volunteered at BHCHP while in nursing school and joined us as a per diem staff last year, covering shifts primarily at our flagship (and largest) outpatient clinic located in the South End. She’s set to complete her nurse practitioner studies soon, and we hope she’ll stay with us to continue serving a patient population she admires.

Visit this website to vote for Madeline by April 5th and help us spread the good work of all BHCHP nurses! https://bit.ly/4clUhzQ
