About the Black Health & Social Services Hub
The Black Health and Social Services (BHSS Hub) is an Afrocentric, culturally-affirming hub offering primary health care, social services and mental health and addictions support to Black, African and Caribbean (BAC) communities in Peel Region.
Roots Community Services, LAMP Community Health Centre and the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) Peel Dufferin are partnering to offer this initiative which was being designed with the holistic health of the individual as the primary focus. This ensures that services are easily accessible and closer to home for Black, African and Caribbean (BAC) communities in Peel.
