A Connected Community
​
Southern Berkshire County is a vibrant, culturally rich, and naturally beautiful community. We are known for our mountains, bodies of water and creative spirit! We have abundant access to organic produce, farm-to-table restaurants, and a wide range of alternative and integrative health care practitioners. It truly is a place where wellness, the arts, and community come together.
​
Health & Community
Our community is supported by a caring network of residents and active service providers. We have a strong foundation of community health services offering an array of services. We have critical access hospital, a federally qualified health center, and a free health clinic increasing opportunity for our residents to live a healthy life.
​
Room for Growth
Despite our abundance and many strengths, many in our community face economic challenges and experience poverty. The cumulative impact of poverty can be seen in health, education, and economic outcomes. The interconnected challenges of poverty often create barriers that are difficult to overcome. Poverty’s ripple effects extend beyond income, influencing wellness, housing, and opportunity.​​​
