What a Year! BCP opened new doors to equity by expanding onto a second floor and doubling our space. In true BCP fashion, we covered the space in art, including murals created by our patients and other local youth. During construction, BCP staff spent most of the year in make-shift offices and working through loud noises - a testament to our incredible staff is that they did it all with a smile and continued to put patients first. We hired new staff, our patient panel grew, and all patients continue to have access to mental health, care navigation, and wellness services along with the highest quality pediatric care.
BCP saw the challenging effects of the housing crisis and inflation on our patients as the high cost of food and housing often caused families to choose between paying their rent and feeding their children. We brought in new partners to support families such as Cocotree Kids, which supplies new underwear for patients, and preventive dental care from BU Dental School. BCP threw the best Back to School event in collaboration with the Pedro Martinez Foundation and once again created BCP's own Holiday Shop this past weekend. BCP supported both staff and patients in so many ways and we feel incredibly grateful to be able to do this work in this beautiful space with wonderful patients. We look forward to 2024 and continuing to change the way healthcare is delivered to all children!
Cheers to 2023 and Peace in 2024!
xoxo,
The BCP team
