Family and Community Health Services

MCHC encourages giving others the proper tools of life that will allow them to live a healthier lifestyle. We are here to help you and your family to stay and become healthy by making smart life choices.

The Public Health staff strives to promote better health and help to assure that people are provided with accessible quality health care. Our programs promote a healthy lifestyle by preventing behaviors that lead to disease and managing chronic health conditions. We offer quality and efficient methods of providing counseling that will allow the individual to meet their wellness goals.

Mattapan Community Health Center has been providing Community and Public Health Services to the Mattapan and Hyde Park communities for more than 40 years. We have a wide array of services that we provide. We are also now accepting new patients. Please call 617-296-0061 to schedule an appointment.

Family And Community Health Services

The Healthcare mission is to change the paradigm of health services to a group care model in order to improve the overall health outcomes of mothers, babies, new families, and all individuals across the life cycle.

Women spend more time with their health care provider, and with other pregnant women, which gives them a chance to learn a lot more about pregnancy, childbirth, and parenting. Checkups, support, and education all take place in a group setting.
