2nd Street to Host CHP Mobile Health Unit
PITTSFIELD, Mass — 2nd Street will host the Community Health Programs (CHP) Mobile Health unit on Wednesday, February 28 from 1-3 pm.

Participants do not have to be a CHP patient to use this service. In most cases, the visit will be covered by the individual's insurance. For those who are uninsured or can't afford to pay, services will be provided free of charge. A sliding fee scale is also available for eligible patients.
The CHP Mobile Health program provides:
- Same-day urgent care

- Blood pressure checks
- Treatment of minor sickness, infections and injuries
- UTI & STI testing and birth control services
