The snow stopped long enough for the Western Massachusetts Network to End Homelessness to bring together almost 20 state legislators, 6 mayors, Administration officials, business partners, our funders and over 100 Network partners to celebrate our Secure Jobs program. Thank you to everyone who made this celebration possible!
We also launched our new Secure Jobs web pages, thanks to the terrific work of Andrea Miller. On it, you can read directly about our impact and get a taste of the personal success stories many of us had the privilege of hearing directly at the celebration.
Media coverage helped spread the good news:
