CANTON, MA – The Point32Health Foundation announced today that five New England nonprofits in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island working to eliminate homelessness will receive grants totaling $690,000. These resources support organizations as they address the health and wellness of people experiencing homelessness, increase affordable housing options and advance advocacy initiatives.

“We have to address the root causes to end homelessness,” said Greg Shell, chair of the Point32Health Foundation and partner at Goldman Sachs. “And solutions need to be grounded in community. Communities can identify the issues and help design relevant solutions to eradicate barriers so people of color and others from under-represented communities can access resources and support.”
