Due to school closures, we have decided to extend scholarship application deadlines from April 1 to April 15. The situation continues to evolve, so we’ll reassess if necessary. We are fortunate to have a strong network of community foundations around the country, with whom we have been in close contact over the last few weeks, to help determine how to best meet community needs – now, and in the long term.

Homes are deed restricted to remain affordable in perpetuity. With the support of Habitat and community contributors, Habitat homeowners achieve the strength, stability and self-reliance they need to build a better life for themselves and their families

This salary negotiation workshop is based on training developed by The MA Office of State Treasurer and Receiver General and AAUW. This topic involves a statewide initiative to train women to negotiate their salaries to help close the gender gap in Massachusetts. Just Ask!
