OPEN HOUSE

Thursday, November 3, 2011

10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

A unique public/private partnership between the Department of Mental Health, Brigham and Women's Hospital, and the Roxbury Tenants of Harvard has led to the much-anticipated redevelopment of the Massachusetts Mental Health Center (MMHC) in Boston's Longwood Medical Area. On Thursday, November 3, 2011, DMH invites the Boston community to visit the new MMHC at 75 Fenwood Road and 20 Vining Street. MMHC, with a near 100-year history in the neighborhood, returns to its roots in two adjacent state-of-the-art facilities that will open for business the following Monday, November 7, 2011.

Open House Tours / Reception
 

Tours of both new buildings will take place throughout the day on November 3rd. Visitors will have an opportunity to view clinical, case management, training and research space at 75 Fenwood Road, as well as the Partial Hospitalization Program and Fenwood Inn in the adjacent building at 20 Vining Street. Light refreshments will be served.

Parking / Directions
 

Limited parking will be available in the open parking lot at the corner of Vining and Fenwood Road. The entrance to the lot is on the access road off Vining Street. Additional parking is available in public parking lots in the area, including the BWH ServiCenter Garage at 70 Francis Street.
 

The center is accessible by the Green Line (D Line Riverside to the Longwood stop, or E Line Heath Street to the Brigham stop) and bus routes No. 8, 19, 39, 47, 60, 65, 66, making stops in the Longwood Area within walking distance of MMHC.
