This department also offers prenatal education, domestic violence safety planning, and referrals to community resources.  As a teaching program, we currently have several PhD and Masters level interns who work within our primary care setting to provide our patients with information on other community, city and national programs, as well.

Patients must have a PCP at South Boston Community Health Center to access our behavioral health services. This means, you must have a SBCHC provider listed with your insurance. To find out who your insurance has as your PCP (or to switch your PCP), just call your insurance plan on the customer service number found on the back of your insurance card. To learn more about how to switch your PCP to South Boston Community Health Center, call and speak to our Financial Counseling department at 617-269-7500.
