Income

South Shore Regional Network to End Homelessness – United Way allocated $20,000 to coordinate area homelessness prevention and affordable housing efforts, secured an additional $60,000 in funds from private foundations, then leveraged $838,000 in a 18-month grant from the Massachusetts’ Interagency Council on Housing and Homelessness for pilot programs to end individual chronic homelessness and family homelessness in the Brockton, Plymouth and Quincy areas. We were awarded an additional $610.000 of federal stimulus dollars through the city of Brockton. In September 2009, two or our partner organizations received an additional $1.8 million in funding to prevent homelessness and rapidly re-house homeless families and individuals. We continue to provide an annual investment of $20,000 and have generated 30,000 from our non-profit partners and $100,000 in additional state funding for a total of over $3.3 million in new resources to southeastern Massachusetts.
