Whittier Street Health Center is a critically needed, uniquely successful healthcare provider for residents of Boston neighborhoods - Roxbury, Dorchester, Mattapan, and the South End - experiencing the highest rates of poverty, pollution, and poor health in our city. Committed to wellness and prevention and addressing racial and ethnic disparities in healthcare, Whittier's innovative and culturally appropriate service and outreach models make us a trusted partner in holistic health for a community that often distrusts the healthcare system. Whittier has received numerous awards and recognition, among them our being named in the top 100 businesses in Massachusetts, Joint Commission accreditation, and recognized by the National Council on Quality Assurance as a Patient-Centered Medical Home. Vision Statement: “Become an exceptional community health provider that addresses healthcare inequities, closes gaps in life expectancy, and pursues social justice.” Mission Statement: “to serve”
