Communities for People, Inc.

Another amazing holiday contest for our MA residential programs! Cynthia Coppola, Assistant Regional Director coordinates this amazing day every year for our residential programs. The youth and staff from each program take the time to decorate their residences and partake in this annual competition. Points were awarded holiday representation(Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanza), youth participation and overall spirit as well. This year our judging panel nearly doubled in size, making the day all the more merry! Thank you to April McGonnigal and Allegra Murray from Citizens for joining us this year. With a deliticable treat for the judges at each program we ended our day withe full bellies and 1 winner who will be announced next week. Thank you to everyone who participated! #HolidayDecorating #DecoratingContest #HappyHolidays #FosterCare #ResidentialProgram #SupportYouth

We are thrilled to share that the US House and Means Committee recently passed a bipartisan bill, the Supporting America's Children and Families Act. This comprehensive bill addresses critical issues and will improve safety, well-being, and permanence for children, families and staff in the foster care system. This is a step in the right direction. Let's continue to advocate for policies that prioritize the needs of foster care families.
