Thanks to YOU – our staff, board members, donors, and partners, Community Teamwork (CTI) is making a difference in the lives of so many in our community.
Please watch our new video to learn about the ways we are making an impact!
Your donation is greatly appreciated and will help us continue our work in helping more than 50,000 individuals in 63 towns and cities gain greater economic independence!
Community Teamwork drives change with vital services and key collaborations, to create housing, education and economic opportunities that reduce poverty and strengthen communities.
From the single mom who can confidently head to work knowing her children are safe and well cared for, to the veteran we help return to his or her community, and the homeless family who gains training, employment, and the dignity of living in decent housing, we help people help themselves with child care, family supports, nutrition, fuel assistance, housing, skills training, employment, financial education, and individual asset and small business development.
