WHO WE ARE
For more than twenty years, Caring Health Center (CHC) has served as an essential
source of health care for residents of greater Springfield. When founded in 1995,
CHC employed 20 people and provided health care to 5,000 patients at one location.
Today, CHC employs 270 people, and serves more than 19,000 patients each year at
three locations. We have two designated locations that provide WIC Nutrition Programs
to Women and Children. In addition, the organization operates a pharmacy and serves as
the largest refugee health assessment provider in Massachusetts.
CHC’s team of Community Health Workers, Health Navigators, and Interpreters ensure
that patients receive comprehensive care that addresses their cultural, economic, and
language needs. The Behavioral Health Specialists deliver services to address
a wide range of emotional and behavioral conditions.
CHC's Wellness Center provides nutrition education, group physical exercise, and other
services to encourage healthy and productive lifestyles among patients.
