Women's Health & Counseling Center is a community-based, non-profit provider of personalized health care for women, particularly those who may not be able to obtain such services from traditional providers due to monetary, cultural, language or other barriers. Our goal is to provide a safe haven where compassionate and high quality services are available. These include medical and preventive care, and counseling and support programs. We promote healthier communities by educating women to make informed health care choices.
History:
WHCC was originally established in April 1973 as the Somerset Neighborhood Health Clinic, the medical arm of the Somerville Youth Development Project. In 1994, the agency changed its name to Women's Health & Counseling Center to more accurately reflect the full compliment of services offered by the agency. Over the past 35 years, programs and services have expanded due to the changing needs of the local community. In addition to family planning and primary care, the agency currently offers sexual assault support services, cancer screenings for eligible women and men, and educational and counseling programs for at-risk adolescents. While WHCC's programs encompass a wide range of services, the commitment to healthy women remains as strong as ever.
