in need; the Clubhouses are able to expand their supportive services to members dealing with mental-health challenges as they re-enter the workforce; the Bridge Family Resource Center supports kids and their families with afterschool activities
and support groups designed to promote healthy, positive relationships. Contact our Development Office to discuss your interests: (413)773-1314; ext. 1047.
