DONATE
Codman has operated in Dorchester for more than 40 years as a resource for improving the physical, mental, and social well-being of the community by relying on a combination of funding types. Reimbursement from insurers and the government for medical care is the a major contributor to our daily operations. Grant funding and private donations enable us to expand our services and do activities such as outreach, innovation, and projects that work toward population-level change.
