More about Fenway Community Health
The work is outpatient: primary care teams where medical assistants back providers, RNs, and LPNs with vitals and care coordination; sexual health roles that cover outreach, risk-reduction counseling, and HIV, Hep C, and STI screening with linkage to care; and dental patient services at 1340 Boylston Street with weekday blocks between 8am and 7pm and Saturday mornings when needed. You chart in Epic. The workplace is unionized. Postings stress a diverse, inclusive environment and strongly encourage LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC candidates. The organization serves tens of thousands of patients a year on a budget described as more than $100 million, and nurses have long noted its published guidance on GLBT patient care. One clear friction sits in plain view: in April 2025, 1199SEIU members rallied over pay, with a union outreach worker saying much of the workforce lives on wages below the cost of living. Separate community discussion also criticized an end to gender-affirming care. Validated sources place the employer in Boston, not McKinney, Texas—worth confirming location before you apply.
LGBTQIA+ rooted community health since 1971; postings emphasize a diverse inclusive environment and strongly encourage LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC candidates.
