On March 5th, our Metrowest Housing Coalition team attended the MA Coalition for the Homeless' Advocacy Day at the State House. The day began with a conference, followed by meetings with legislative offices for:

Representative Simon Cataldo
Representative Danielle Gregoire
Representative James Arena DeRosa
Representative David Linsky
Senate President Karen Spilka
Senator Becca Rausch
Representative Dan Sena

These conversations provided an opportunity to elevate the urgent housing needs of MetroWest communities and advocate for policies that support housing stability and affordability.

You may have questions about the ongoing government shutdown and what it means for those who rely on SNAP benefits to afford food.

Currently, the Department of Transitional Assistance (DTA) and SNAP are operating normally. DTA is approving and issuing SNAP for applications filed in October, approving and issuing SNAP for Interim Reports and Recertifications, etc.

We’ve put together a summary of what happens to SNAP benefits if the shutdown doesn’t end by October 31st. Please swipe through to learn about what will happen, what you can do to help, and what resources are still available to folks who rely on SNAP benefits.

Did you know that about 1 in 10 men experience depression or anxiety, while less than half receive treatment? (Anxiety & Depression Association of America).

November 1st marks the start of Men’s Health Awareness Month. This month serves as a reminder to prioritize physical and mental health.

Ready to break the stigma? BHPMW is here to help you jumpstart your wellness journey.

Call our Navigation Line at 1-844-528-6800 Monday-Friday to speak with one of our care navigators who will help find the best mental health and social services for you.

If you are experiencing a mental health or substance use crisis and need immediate assistance, contact the statewide Behavioral Health Help Line 833-773-2445, available 24/7.

Is the information I share kept confidential?

Keeping your personal information secure is important to us. Our referral line follows all federal guidelines for gathering, storing, and sharing personal health information (PHI). Our care coordinators may be required to disclose information or records without prior written consent from the person receiving services in the following situations:

The person’s behavior creates a clear and present danger of harm to themselves or others
In the event of suspected abuse or neglect of a child, or a disabled or elderly person
Your care coordinator will discuss this with you directly should the situation arise.

Why do you ask about my Primary Care Physician?

We believe that integrating physical and emotional/mental health promotes the best possible care. Because of this, our care coordinators will ask if you would like to authorize communication with your P*P so we can inform them about any services you may be connected to.

Speaking with your P*P is an optional component of our care coordination service and is not required to receive our assistance. If you have further questions about this process or how your personal health information is managed, please speak with your care coordinator directly.

How long will it take for me to get services?

The Navigation Line facilitates referrals as quickly as possible. The wait time depends on your insurance, availability, service preference(s), language preference, and location.

Your care coordinator will directly communicate with you about the anticipated wait time and the various options available. In addition, our care coordinators stay in contact with both you and the agency/program you are being referred to until you feel securely connected so that nothing “falls through the cracks.”

Can you connect me with a prescriber for medication?

Yes! There are two options:

1. Attend counseling/therapy and receive medication management:
To receive medication from one of our partners, you must participate in ongoing counseling/therapy services. Our care coordinators can refer you for counseling/therapy.

Referrals for medication management can be made by your counselor/therapist after consistently attending a few appointments.

2. Receive medication management only:
We can also refer you to a provider outside our partner group.

Call 1-844-528-6800 to speak with one of our care coordinators today.

On August 16th, we proudly participated in our partner agency Wayside’s Back to School Celebration!

The community came together for an afternoon filled with music and fun while gathering school supplies and connecting with local organizations.

Thanks to the incredible support of our partners, 500 community members received school supplies to kick off the year!

One question we get asked a lot: do you provide therapy?

Although our care coordinators are experienced in supporting behavioral health and social service needs, we do not offer direct clinical support through our referral line. Instead, we serve as a bridge to connect you to the right support through one of our partners or another community resource if appropriate.

Call 1-844-528-6800 and we’ll help find the right support for you.
