BUILDING HOPE & CHANGING LIVES

Founded in 1926

Aspire Health Alliance, formerly South Shore Mental Health, is helping to pioneer a new approach to behavioral health.  Aspire Health Alliance provides a continuum of care that is proactive, coordinated, available through multiple access points, and integrated with medical care.

OUR MISSION

We are making emotional well-being essential to overall health and building a supportive community for all, through effective, integrated care that is tailored to the way you live.

Our vision

There can be no health without mental health; it is integral to the well-being of the whole community.

Our Core Values

• Your well-being is essential.
• Health is about trust.
• Community Matters.

Who We Are

Since 1926, Aspire Health Alliance has been building hope and changing lives for children with developmental disabilities, and children, teens and adults living with mental illness. Today, we have more than 500 employees based in Braintree, Marshfield, and Quincy, and our non-profit early intervention and mental health treatment and recovery programs reach 16,000 people from Boston throughout the South Shore and Southeastern Massachusetts.

Our services include outpatient clinics in Braintree, Marshfield, and Quincy. We also offer services along the continuum of care including day treatment, intensive wrap-around services, residential services, and building social and job skills for adults and adolescents focused on increasing each client’s independence. In addition, we provide child and family services in the home, school, child care center, group residence and other community settings.

Aspire Health Alliance recognizes that attracting and retaining exceptional staff is the key to providing excellent care for our clients. Aspire Health Alliance remains committed to the development and training of our future clinicians, to staff development and to community training around behavioral health. Since 1963, there has been an American Psychological Association (APA) Accredited Doctoral Internship in Clinical Psychology in place at Aspire Health Alliance.
