Human Development and Self-Sufficiency

Human Development and Self-Sufficiency

The mission of the Human Development and Self-Sufficiency Committee is to enable those who are disadvantaged in various ways to help themselves and others.  It supports organizations dedicated to building equitable, safe and successful communities in the Greater Boston-area by providing pathways for disadvantaged individuals to become self-sufficient, valued, and productive members of their communities.

The Committee funds grants in areas including, but not limited to, services for domestic violence and human-trafficking survivors, homelessness prevention, job training and programs that enable youth to overcome obstacles to positive growth.
