Health & Human Services Internet Gateway

Launched in 2004, Virtual Gateway is an Internet portal that provides the general public and human service clients, providers, and front-line staff with online access to health and human services information and services. For additional information, please visit the page.

Information and services on the Virtual Gateway are organized according to what human service clients, providers, and staff need and how they seek information and conduct business today. The Gateway is the result of collaboration across multiple government agencies to meet three common goals:

• Provide a single point of access to services,
• Promote worker and provider productivity, and
• Support the relationship between the Commonwealth and its community partners.

Over 12,000 individuals, many of them employed by more than 500 state agencies and provider organizations, use the Virtual Gateway today to conduct business with agencies within the Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS) and within the Department of Housing and Community Development.
