About Berkshire AHEC

Berkshire AHEC is a member of the
MassAHEC Network.



Our Mission:
Berkshire AHEC’s mission is to further the education of students and practitioners in the health professions, and to assist healthcare providers, agencies, academic institutions, community organizations, coalitions and neighborhood groups to effectively plan health service delivery & prevention activities.


Berkshire Area Health Education Center (AHEC) is part of the statewide MassAHEC Network at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. There are over 220 AHECs throughout the U.S., with six in Massachusetts. Berkshire AHEC, founded in 1979, is actively involved in medical education, continuing professional development and education for health & human service professionals, and community based coalitions which address critical issues of public health, such as teen pregnancy, substance abuse, obesity, and violence.


In 2009 Berkshire AHEC became a State Office of Minority and Woman Owned Business Assistance (SOMWBA) certified organization.
