Resilience Builder Program

Pathways to racial justice and resilience are paved with reframing narratives, building knowledge and skills, being in a supportive community, and taking strategic, collective action. So, in the summer of 2020, we partnered with All Aces, Inc, BridgeBuilder Cinematic Arts, TCGT Entertainment, and Encuentro Diaspora. Each year we evolve the program for even more impactful experiences.

ELDER WELLNESS & SUPPORT

Boston Resilience Corps members and our team provide food deliveries and other resources to over 100 Black elders in the City of Boston each month. We call to check on them and if they need food that month, we bring them perishable and shelf stable groceries. We also organize focused in-person wellness checks at senior housing developments with the Boston Resilience Corps members.
