South COVE community health center was incorporated in 1972 by a group of volunteers in response to the inadequate provision of primary care services for the local residents in boston chinatown due to their language and cultural differences. Our mission is to improve the health and well-being of asian americans in massachusetts, with a special focus on the medically underserved. This mission is accomplished by providing high quality, community-based health care and programs which are accessible, affordable, as well as linguistically and culturally competent for these populations.
