Additionally, individuals who have undisclosed trauma may be further challenged by their trauma experience with a reduction of their natural supports.

By caring for Veterans in a family-based clinic, and by working in cooperation with the Veterans Administration (VA) and the Department of Defense (DoD), Home Base serves as a replicable model to promote the health and well-being of Veterans nationwide. Our services are specifically designed to overcome common barriers to care for returning Veterans. We provide care to all Veterans and Families, regardless of ability to pay or discharge status, and utilize a “three generation” model of care that extends to parents, children, and extended family members who are effectively integrated into care. Our integrated team of child and adult psychiatrists, clinical psychologists and neuropsychologists, nurses and nurse practitioners, physical medicine and rehabilitation specialists, licensed clinical social workers, addictions specialists, and peer-to-peer outreach coordinators – all of whom are Veterans and/or Family Members of the Post-9/11 wars – work together to ensure that Veterans and their Families receive or are connected to appropriate and uniquely-tailored care. Home Base provides world-class clinical care, support, and wellness programs for members of the military community impacted by invisible wounds such as post-traumatic stress (PTS) or traumatic brain injuries.

The Cape Cod Hunger Network
133 Queen Anne Road Harwich, MA 02645
The Cape Cod Hunger Network (CCHN) is a growing coalition of organizations, including Cape food pantries and state and local agencies that help coordinate food security programs. The Hunger Network identifies needs on the Cape and then looks for ways to address that need through its membership. For example, the Network provides shared freezer storage for pantries who might not have the capacity to hold the product they need. The Hunger Network also is an outlet through which advocacy efforts are channeled and works directly with the Greater Boston Food Bank in regard to legislative imperatives.
The Cape Cod Hunger Network provides a guide to all the local pantries. Please click on the "Food Pantries" tab above for a complete listing. We encourage you to support your local pantry through your "time, talent, and/or treasures" as we all try to eliminate hunger on Cape Cod. During Covid-19, please contact your local pantry to determine what they are able to accept. Many pantries are not accepting food donations from the general public. All are accepting financial and volunteer support.
If you are in need of food, please see our list of food pantries on Cape Cod. Many of the pantries have removed documentation requirements during the Covid-19 crisis. If you are struggling to put food on your table, please reach out to your local pantry. It is a simple process, at a time when many are facing food insecurity for the first time in their lives.

The Cape Cod Hunger Network (CCHN) is a growing coalition of organizations, including Cape food pantries and state and local agencies that help coordinate food security programs. The Hunger Network identifies needs on the Cape and then looks for ways to address that need through its membership. For example, the Network provides shared freezer storage for pantries who might not have the capacity to hold the product they need. The Hunger Network also is an outlet through which advocacy efforts are channeled and works directly with the Greater Boston Food Bank in regard to legislative imperatives.
The Cape Cod Hunger Network provides a guide to all the local pantries. Please click on the "Food Pantries" tab above for a complete listing. We encourage you to support your local pantry through your "time, talent, and/or treasures" as we all try to eliminate hunger on Cape Cod. During Covid-19, please contact your local pantry to determine what they are able to accept. Many pantries are not accepting food donations from the general public. All are accepting financial and volunteer support.
If you are in need of food, please see our list of food pantries on Cape Cod. Many of the pantries have removed documentation requirements during the Covid-19 crisis. If you are struggling to put food on your table, please reach out to your local pantry. It is a simple process, at a time when many are facing food insecurity for the first time in their lives.
