Phoenix House Dorchester Center

Phoenix House Dorchester is located on the site of St. Mary’s Center for Women and Children in Dorchester, Massachusetts, a community-based, multiservice institution that provides support services to adult women as well as pregnant and parenting teens, including education and job training.

Because of its location in Boston, the women and children at Dorchester Center can access many of the programs listed above, while their moms undergo high-quality substance abuse treatment. The program helps women improve their health, enhance their education, and complete job training both on and off campus, which has resulted in long-term employment and security for their families in many situations.
