Horizons for Homeless Children

Horizons for Homeless Children helps children learn how to play, to share, to read, and to enjoy exploring their worlds in a structured environment. We help parents learn how to be nurturing and involved in the growth and development of their children, and help them learn and grow through job training, GED and college courses. We help to stabilize families so that they can weather any crisis, and thus help to break the cycle of homelessness that too often occurs in Massachusetts and around the world.
