Mission Statement

To advance its preventative care initiatives, the South Boston Community Health Center (SBCHC) created the Institute for a Healthier Community (IHC) in 2003 to focus on improving the health of the youth of South Boston. The goals of the IHC are to: 1) Increase assets among the youth of South Boston; 2) Build partnerships between youth and adults; 3) Develop leadership among youth; and, 4) Establish and strengthen collaboration among community members, non-profit organizations, and other sectors of the community, such as businesses, neighborhood groups and churches. Youth who participate in weekly meetings, engage in community service efforts, and participate in educational workshops are called Youth Ambassadors. We meet with more than 50 youth ages 12 - 18 every Tuesday that are fully involved in the life of the South Boston community. Most live in the three BHA housing developments in South Boston
