Greetings!
Happy Spring from all of us at HPC! We hope you join in our efforts to celebrate our 30th year of service to the Lower and Outer Cape.
HPC was founded by the community, for the community, and we continue our work today thanks to your generous support and partnership. Please take a moment to read our 30th Anniversary Report and see the growing list of generous 30th Anniversary Sponsors.
Our anniversary report, new website, and our 3rd annual Walk for Home are just the beginning of the many efforts you will see from HPC in the coming months.
Thank you as always for your support and confidence in our mission. We hope to see you at our Walk for Home in just a few weeks!

Congratulations Danielle! |

Danielle, a graduate of our REACH Project, set one of her goals to continue her education. She used her financial stipend to help pay for courses at Cape Cod Community College, with the skills she obtained in REACH. We are so proud to share with you Danielle’s recent graduation from 4 C’s with an associate degree in criminal justice.
“I took five classes while working two jobs. The earliest I went to bed at night was 3 am. I was always so tired, but I pushed through and did my best. I just want to say thank you – if I didn’t enroll in the REACH program, it would have been difficult for me."

Change happens when we come together to support those most vulnerable in our community. We are incredibly grateful to our 30th Anniversary Sponsors who through their commitment and generosity to HPC allow us to continue introducing new and innovative programming to meet the ever-changing and complex issues facing our clients. Thank you!

We're Back!
HPC in Person, in the Community!
|
|
Meeting in person with those in our community including our senior, isolated community members, and immigrant neighbors is critical to our intervention and effort to leave no one behind in our mission to promote stability for all who live in our community.
We have just resumed our weekly on-site outreach efforts at the Family Pantry of Cape Cod every Tuesday from 11:00 to 3:00 and will be expanding our various outreach efforts in the weeks ahead.

Let's Talk About Tomorrow |
|
Our next Let's Talk About Tomorrow information session will be presented by the Chatham Council On Aging on Thursday, June 17th at 9:00 AM via Zoom. This information is crucial for older adults who are considering either applying for affordable senior housing or aging in place. To register, call the Chatham COA at (508) 945-5190.
“HPC got me started in the process and it was just like a godsend, a miracle. I am delighted to now be in an affordable elderly housing unit in South Dennis and I just thank my lucky stars every day for it. I am indebted to HPC for making it possible. I don’t know what my situation would have been without their support.”

Thank you for not making me feel ashamed for asking for help.”
