The winter edition of Inspire, our newsletter, has arrived!

We’re excited to share with you these updates on our work, including the below message from our Executive Director, Nancy Allen-Scannell. To read the full newsletter, please click here!

Dear friends,

If you are in need of some good news, you have come to the right place! I invite you to grab a warm beverage ~ hot chocolate for me please ~ and spend a few minutes reading about some wonderful people who are helping us make things better for kids and families throughout Massachusetts.

There is much to be concerned about right now as policy changes and looming funding cuts threaten both child well-being and the availability of services and basic supports. Our administrative and policy teams are working hard to limit the impact these emerging challenges will have on the people we serve. And, at the same time, on a daily basis our team is working with hundreds of children, and their families and caregivers. These talented, creative, and compassionate professionals provide services and supports to help program participants overcome serious obstacles to their health and well-being, remain together as families, and thrive.

The key to MSPCC’s success is that we do not do this work alone. In this newsletter you will read about some of our valued partners. Businesses like PwC and Yale Appliance Foundation, MSPCC Board of Advisors members like Patricia Murphy, and donors like you, who are our support system and our inspiration. With their help, and yours, we are prepared and equipped to help kids and families take on challenges large and small.

Whether we are meeting the needs of one child or one parent at a time, or working to change policy, practice and systems, MSPCC’s success relies on all of us working together. And together, we are making a big difference for children and families.

With gratitude,

Nancy
