Community Health Advocacy Information, Referral and Outreach Services assist people with MassHealth and other health insurance enrollment options. Springfield Partners also works to publicize the importance of having a primary care provider, which reduces emergency room visits. We can also help residents complete or submit food stamp (SNAP), fuel assistance, and other applications.
Our goals are to:
- Increase community knowledge of health care resources
- Improve community access to health care services
- Increase community participation in health education programs
- Refer women to free mammograms, available through the American Cancer Society
- Improve community satisfaction with health care services
- Maintain contact with people whose health-related problems put them at risk

Community Health Advocacy services are available at 721 State Street from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
