Organization's MissionPart I, Line 1; Part III, Line 1:Action for Boston Community Development's (ABCD) mission is to combat poverty by promoting self-help for low-income people and neighborhoods. It implements this mandate through a decentralized, neighborhood-based structure and process that provides innovative, practical and timely programs and services.

Provider services ensure timely payments to over 1100 providers and gives stability to the large and small businesses. Information & referral services walk parents through the process of securing safe and affordable day care for their children. Training is accessible to all providers and their staff in 5 languages. And support services assist families and providers in caring for children with disabilities. This program also connects these families to other services, such as, food stamps, housing assistance, fuel assistance, health services, senior services, other children and youth services, and workforce / professional development. 4b - Program Service #2: ABCD's Head Start program provides low income children and their families with education, health, special education, dental, mental health, and social and nutritional services. Head Start serves as a model for early education initiatives nationwide and throughout the world. Early Head Start serves pregnant mothers, infants, and toddlers up to age three, providing very young children with the care and stimulation proven to aid brain development in the earliest years. The decentralized ABCD Head Start program serves more than 2400 pre-kindergarten children including more than 2200 three-to-five year olds in 24 neighborhood based programs in Boston. It also serves more than 186 infants, toddlers, pregnant women and teen parents in Early Head start programs in Boston neighborhoods of Dorchester, East Boston and the South End. 4c - Program Service #3: ABCD's Energy Services include fuel assistance and conservation programs. ABCD Fuel Assistance helps nearly 17,000 households in Boston, Brookline and Newton pay fuel bills during the heating season. ABCD's weatherization program provides significant improvements in attic and wall insulation, weather stripping, air sealing and heating system repairs and replacements that are all designed to help low income families stretch limited resources through New England's long, cold winter months. Studies show that conservation improvements typically save 25-35 percent of winter heating bills. ABCD also provides referral and advocacy for eligible clients interested in reducing their utility arrearages. The major utilities serving ABCD's geographical area offer arrearage management payment plans and ABCD assists eligible clients have a portion of their debt forgiven while adhering to a structured payment plan. 4d - Other Program Services Other program services include health services, housing and homelessness, summer youth and other employment programs, asset development, financial literacy and elderly services.
