For hundreds of households in Bangor’s Capehart neighborhood, Moving Families Forward has led to higher incomes for parents, improved academic results and well-being for children, and strengthened family relationships. The program is a partnership of BangorHousing and the Boys and Girls Club of Bangor, with support from the John T. Gorman Foundation.
“Everything in this program has helped me. It’s been such a blessing.”
This is the third installment of our Building Brighter Futures series in the Portland Press Herald, which is highlighting how innovative two-generation partnerships in Maine are helping children, their caregivers, and whole families build greater well-being.
