The Sidney Borum, Jr., Health Center provides a full range of primary care, mental health and substance abuse counseling, HIV counseling, testing and risk reduction reinforcement, and other clinical and social services to young people, generally between the ages of 13 and 29. Our primary focus is on persons who fall outside of more traditional healthcare settings for a variety of reasons, including homelessness; involvement in street life and the sex industry; and being gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender and, therefore, at risk of not receiving culturally and clinically appropriate services.

The Health Center also serves young people who have STDs, or for other reasons want confidentiality in their health care, and persons who have been unable to accept or gain acceptance in traditional health care settings. The Borum Health Center is affiliated with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center as an important component of Community Care Alliance, and with Boston Children's Hospital. It is licensed as a health center, mental health clinic, and substance abuse center by the Department of Public Health.

The Sidney Borum Health Center is located at 130 Boylston Street in Boston, MA and is open on Monday and Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and on Tuesday through Thursday from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m..
