We believe that the path to sustainable change for the health of our communities lies in multi-sector, collaborative, interdisciplinary efforts that address the roots of health disparities, not the symptoms.

The Blue Hills Community Health Alliance, a hosted program of Bay State Community Services (BSCS), works to improve the overall health of local residents by facilitating multi-sector collaboration to address the region’s most pressing public health needs.

The Alliance serves the 13 communities of Braintree, Canton, Cohasset, Hingham, Hull, Milton, Norwell, Norwood, Quincy, Randolph, Scituate, Sharon and Weymouth.
