Who We Are

Bay State Community Services (BSCS) strives to be a leader in providing services that promote the emotional and social well-being of the people and communities we serve. We are dedicated to improving the social functioning of adults, adolescents, and children within a framework that recognizes the primary importance of family and community. To this end, the agency’s mission is to foster individual, family, and community empowerment through a culturally competent continuum of social, behavioral health, substance use recovery, prevention and rehabilitative justice programs.

The agency will further its mission by partnering in a strength -based culture of recovery that affirms the principles of self-determination and individual dignity while fostering the mutual aid inherent in belonging, in relationships, and in collective action for the collective good.
