This view on my nightly walk/run simply never gets old.  Good days become great and not-so-great days become better, once I round the corner on Atlantic Avenue and see this sight.

Thanks, Rockport.

GLOUCESTER’S MAYOR PLEDGES MONEY TO EXTEND PROGRAM TO 5 DAYS

GLOUCESTER, MA

“The Grace Center has become a very important part of what our community needs. People who are in trouble now rely on this program for basic support and safe space during the day. For years I have worked with people with these disabilities, and I know many of them personally. As mayor I am committing $15,000 from the city’s 2015 Community Development Block Grant budget.  This is a challenge grant to encourage the Grace Center to expand to five days of operations. Gloucester critically needs this, and I am confident that the many partner agencies, churches, and leaders involved will work with me to make this possible.” – MAYOR SEFATIA ROMEO THEKEN

The Grace Center Inc. operates as a day resource center for those adults on Cape Ann who are homeless,  low-income and in crisis or transition. To date, the organization has served over 600 individuals, offering breakfast and a hot lunch, along with social services. Learn more at www.gracecenterinc.org
