About Fenway Health – Sidney Borum Jr. Health Center

Sidney Borum Jr. Health Program is in metropolitan Boston, Massachusetts. They offer efficient and caring treatment designed especially for youths between the ages of 12 and 29. With choices like Vivitrol and Suboxone, they are committed to offering medication assisted treatment (MAT) for substance use disorder because they recognize that every person has a different road to recovery.

You can take back your life and reintegrate into your community, family, and workplace with the help of their MAT. By integrating MAT into primary care, they guarantee that you will receive all of your treatment in one handy location along with a pharmacy to make your experience more efficient. Rapid enrollment also makes it possible for you to start your recovery process right away.

At-risk youth, such as LGBTQIA+ and homeless teenagers, substance-using youth, and youth engaged in gangs or sex work, are especially welcome in the program. They provide various services in addition to MAT, such as assessments, referrals, therapy and individual counseling. There’s also assistance for AIDs and STD testing, hepatitis C, and outreach programs for community health liaisons.

They also provide support groups and psychiatric evaluation and treatment for all clients. Boston is a cosmopolitan city, and they recognize that your peers can help share experiences and provide a shoulder to lean on throughout your recovery.

Out of state Medicaid plans cannot be accepted by them. However, they do accept the majority of major health plans including Harvard Pilgrim, Blue Cross, Blue Shield and Masshealth. A sliding fee schedule that is discounted ensures that no one will be turned away for services because they cannot afford them.
