Victory Programs

This past Saturday, a group of donors and staff participated in a guided tour that encompassed the Jamaica Plain Peer Recovery Center for people in recovery, a low-threshold shelter for individuals experiencing chronic homelessness, a supportive permanent housing site and a beautiful recovery home for LGBTQ+ individuals and women in the early stages of recovery. "There’s just no substitute for seeing the programs and it was good to see programs for folks at different stages from shelter to permanent housing. Also, all the VPI program managers and Tammy were so impressive" - Lynn Weissberg, Victory Programs Board Member. If you are interested in learning more, gaining a closer look into the impact of your support, and arranging a personal tour of any of our programs and housing sites, don't hesitate to reach out to the development team at [email protected].

📅 Save the date for our free virtual event: The Opposite of Addiction is Connection: Sustaining Recovery Through Community Tuesday, June 11, 5:00 p.m. Connection is the cornerstone of recovery, offering solace, strength, and solidarity to those navigating the challenging and often isolating terrain of addiction. Whether it's sharing stories, lending a listening ear, or simply knowing that one is not alone in their struggles, the bonds formed through connection serve as lifelines, illuminating pathways to hope and renewal. Victory Programs embraces the transformative power of meaningful relationships and communal support in the healing journey. Through our comprehensive range of programs and services, we cultivate environments where individuals can forge genuine connections and find belonging with others in recovery. Join us virtually on Tuesday, June 11, at 5:00 p.m. for a meaningful and compelling discussion led by experts and those with lived experiences. We'll delve deeper into the vital role of relationships in breaking the cycle of addiction and fostering long-term wellness. Whether you're a healthcare professional, recovery coach, policymaker, or you or someone you know is navigating their own recovery journey, the panelists will offer invaluable insights to pave the way for a future where every individual has the support they need to thrive beyond addiction.

A few weeks ago, 50+ passionate individuals part of the ProjectABLE coalition joined together at the State House to advocate for vital funding restoration. The event was an incredible opportunity to stand up for what’s right and ensure critical services remain accessible to those in need across our state. Together, we’re making a difference in the lives of countless individuals. For those who might’ve missed it, Governor Healey proposed a $5.6 million cut to the HIV, Infectious Disease, and Harm Reduction line item (DPH4512-0103) in the state budget. This line item funds essential services across the Commonwealth, and our collective efforts as part of the ProjectABLE Coalition aim to persuade the legislature to restore that funding for FY25. Thank you to all who attended and spent the day making sure our voices were heard! And we thank everyone who took the time to listen. Your support means everything to us. We must continue to advocate for the underserved and work towards a brighter, more equitable future. 🌟 Click this link to learn more about how this funding cut will affect those living with HIV and infectious diseases: https://lnkd.in/e25PueSK Click this link to find your legislator and ask they restore the cut and fund the #HIV, Hep C, and #HarmReduction line item (DPH4512-0103) at level funding of $35 million: https://lnkd.in/eDJhQuG

It was an incredibly powerful and informative session and we are so honored to have had the chance to share the story of the BLC and the importance of congregate meals. Thank you to Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS for this opportunity!
