Caring for the Homeless and Those at Risk Across Cape Cape
Duffy Health Center grew out of a volunteer free clinic based in a broom closet at the NOAH shelter in 1988. Dedicated to providing care for the growing number of homeless men and women on Cape Cod, the Center was incorporated in 1997 as Barnstable County’s primary health care provider for homeless adults. Our history is interwoven with our commitment to care for the people who need care the most. For over 14 years, Duffy has provided services at our center in Hyannis, and most recently through the addition of a mobile health clinic. We are licensed for primary care and mental health services. A free-standing, independent non-profit community health center, the Duffy Health Center has been funded by the federal Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) Health Care for the Homeless program since 2002.
At Duffy Health Center, our mission is to prevent and reduce homelessness on Cape Cod through community collaborations and the provision of integrated services to persons who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.
