Bake-a Cake Program (BAC)

Residents’ stays can range from 3 to 9 months, or even longer, during which they often reach significant milestones in their recovery or have special occasions like birthdays. We believe that such moments deserve to be enhanced with a delightful cake. Currently, we have a tradition of celebrating birthdays on the last Thursday of each month, at 5:30 pm following dinner. To see open dates check out the BAC calendar on SignUp.com

Workshops & Job Skills Training for Residents

If you have a passion for recovery and are looking for a great way to give back, we are seeking individuals or groups to volunteer their time and talent. Our residents face many challenges, such as finding gainful employment. Sometimes it is just because they lack the training and skills they need to apply. If you have experience in job skills training, resume building, basic computer skills, financial literacy, credit building, etc., or ESL contact Alyssa at (508) 755-6403 Ext. 110 to see how your experience can benefit others!
