Women supporting women – that's the heart of our Strong Mom, Healthy Baby program.

In this innovative group program, new mothers (and sometimes fathers!) and their babies come together for routine pediatric check-ups, while moms share their experience, ask questions of providers and other new moms, build community, and help each other tackle the shared challenges of new parenthood. No mom should have to take on motherhood alone–so our health care model makes space for relationship-building and belonging.

This Women's History Month, we celebrate all the mothers who are stepping up for each other. Thank you for being a part of a new model of care that values community and connection just as much as it values medical care. Together, we are changing the way healthcare is delivered to all children - by building trust, centering dignity, and providing the same support for kids–and moms–that we would want for our own families.

Today, at BCP, we’re feeling extra lucky–because we work with the most amazing team in Boston! 💚🌈

So we just had to surprise them with St. Patrick's Day shirts, festive headbands, and goodie bags for a little celebrating.

Happy St. Patrick's Day from all of us at BCP! 🍀

Meet Dr. Jen Gill, BCP's Medical Director, third-time marathoner, and proof that commitment to a mission can get you through anything. Even 4 AM wake-ups. 🕓

There are the early mornings and sore muscles. The tedious treadmill runs (because Boston winters aren't kind to outdoor training). And when you do brave the outdoors, there are the negative-five-degree mornings in the dark: "I put on every coat in my house and couldn't move my arms. I looked like the Michelin Man." 🧣🧤

So why does she do it?

"Training for a marathon has to be proof of how much I believe in the mission of BCP," says Jen, who recently joined BCP full-time as our Medical Director. As a pediatrician with over two decades of experience, she knows the power of equitable, integrated healthcare. And not only has she made it her full time mission and passion, she also decided it’s worth running for.

"I'm slow and steady!” she says, and she’s sticking to her plan to make it across the finish line: “eat well, sleep well, and run a little farther each week." No matter what!

That's dedication to healthcare equity – one mile at a time.

Cheer on BCP’s own Dr. Jen Gill on April 20th and support her marathon here: https://ow.ly/TMMX50YuY9U 💙

A huge thank you to the Northeastern University Latin American Student Organization for volunteering with us to pack swag bags for BCP's Camp Night! 🏕️🎒

Camp Night is one of our favorite events of the year. We know safe, enriching activities are essential for all children–especially when school is out–so we bring BCP families together to explore day and overnight programs with representatives from local summer camps, and we help them register their children for life-changing adventures.

We are so grateful for community partners like LASO! Thanks to their hard work, participating patients will receive a bag full of everything they need to get excited for summer: a towel, water bottle, Target gift card, hygiene kit, sunscreen, and more. ☀️

Because we are ALL looking forward to warmer weather–and every child deserves a summer to remember. 💙

Today, Boston Marathon Giving Day, is a 24-hour online fundraising sprint that helps marathon teams and runners push toward their fundraising goals 🦄💙💛 It is the biggest fundraising day of the marathon season! This Boston Marathon Giving Day, help us rally behind BCP’s Inaugural Boston Marathon Team and fuel every mile they take toward changing the way healthcare is delivered to all children 👟💪✨

Every family deserves the essential hygiene products and clothing that allow them to live with confidence, dignity, and good health. But too often, families already contending with impossible choices–like paying for rent or groceries–are forced to go without.

We’re proud that behind every appointment at BCP, there's a network of community partners helping our families access those essentials:

💙 Hygiene kits from Hope & Comfort, making soap, shampoo, toothpaste, and deodorant available at every BCP visit.

💙 Menstrual products from Dignity Matters, overcoming period poverty as a critical barrier to health and wellbeing.

💙 New underwear from Cocotree Kids, addressing clothing insecurity one package at a time.

💙 Diapers in all sizes from Diaper Circle, because clean, dry diapers are essential for children’s health but are not covered by assistance programs like SNAP or WIC.

💙 Clothing for all ages from Cradles to Crayons Massachusetts and many other donors, allowing families to choose what they need at no cost in a private, respectful space.

We're so grateful for every organization that helps us serve families with dignity. ✨

This is what community partnership looks like: working together to remove barriers that shouldn't exist in the first place.

We are proud to continue our partnership with Life Science Cares for our second year! Through the Network of Good, BCP works alongside 39 Boston nonprofits to disrupt the cycle of poverty and improve health equity in our community–because when it comes to creating lasting change for Boston's children and families, we’re stronger together.

Today we celebrate International Women's Day, and the women who make BCP possible. 💪

BCP is a woman-led, woman-founded organization, and we're proud to be powered by a community of so many incredible women: physicians, staff, philanthropists, and community partners.

And we celebrate the mothers, grandmothers, aunties, sisters, and caregivers who trust us with their children's health. The women who advocate fiercely for their families. The women who navigate impossible systems to do what is right for their kids.

We are so grateful to partner with all of you as we work for a more equitable future.

This month, we will share stories from our team about the women who inspired them and why representation in medicine matters.

Happy International Women's Day. 💫

This April, four incredible people will lace up their running shoes and go the extra mile for Boston Community Pediatrics.

🏃Meet our inaugural 2026 Boston Marathon Team! Cooper Harrison, Jamie Keys, Michael McDermott, and BCP’s Medical Director, Dr. Jen Gill.

They're waking up to 4 AM alarms and training through blizzard conditions. They're logging miles on treadmills and along the Charles. And they're doing it all to support comprehensive, equitable pediatric healthcare in Boston and beyond.

Over the next few weeks, we'll be introducing you to each runner—their stories, their "why," and their strategies for getting through those grueling training runs (recommended playlists may vary!).

Every mile they run supports our mission: to make high-quality, integrated care accessible for all families, not just those who can afford it.

Follow along as we cheer them to the finish line on April 20th. 💙

Boston Community Pediatrics had a blast supporting local children’s programming at the Dewitt Center in Roxbury! 🌸🍓

Over February vacation, WinnResidential hosted engaging programming during school vacation week to support children–and parents–while school was out! Two of BCP’s incredible Family Partners, Jasmin and Kim, were excited to join the fun by leading participants in a delicious smoothie-making activity.

The kids got creative, decorating their cups with spring stickers and concocting their own delicious fruit smoothies, made with fresh strawberries, bananas, spinach, yogurt, honey, and milk. 🥤✨ To top it off, each child went home with some awesome BCP swag.

It was a wonderful afternoon filled with creativity, healthy snacks, and lots of smiles. Our team is so grateful to be part of events that bring our community together! 💛

All smiles here because Boston Community Pediatrics has been awarded a $10,000 grant from The 'Quin Impact Fund as part of their Health & Wellness pillar.

We're deeply grateful for this investment in our mission to provide integrated, comprehensive care to all families, regardless of their ability to pay. This support strengthens our capacity to address pediatric care, mental health, and social determinants of health, all seamlessly coordinated under one roof.

Thank you to The 'Quin Impact Fund Leadership Board for recognizing our work and partnering with us to create pediatric health equity in Boston. Together, we're proving that a different kind of healthcare is possible.

Throughout Black History Month, BCP families and staff came together to create something beautiful: a community quilt celebrating Black history, creativity, and joy.

African American quilting is an art form rooted in storytelling. For generations, quilts have carried messages, celebrated milestones, and connected communities. During the Underground Railroad, quilts held coded symbols to guide enslaved people to freedom.

BCP honored that legacy using vibrant patterns and colors to express identity, history, and resilience.

Each square tells a story. Together, they reflect our shared belief in the power and importance of community care, creative expression, and celebrating Black joy.

Thank you to everyone who contributed. This quilt will hang in our office as a reminder of the beautiful community we serve. 💙
