Congratulations to our Compass Youth Program graduates!

We loved celebrating this special milestone with you, your friends and your family last night at the Shalin Liu Performance Center in Rockport.

Action Inc.'s Compass Youth Program supports out-of-school youth, aged 16–24, in earning their high school equivalency and preparing for their next steps in education and careers.

A heartfelt thank-you to our dedicated Compass staff and volunteers for supporting our students every step of the way and helping make this celebration possible. We’re so proud of our graduates and can’t wait to see what the future holds for each of you!

Governor Maura Healey has declared a state of emergency over rising winter energy costs in Massachusetts, highlighting the growing burden heating bills are placing on households across the state.

The Healey administration will provide an additional $15 million in winter heating assistance, supporting approximately 156,000 low-income households across Massachusetts. Current assistance ranges from approximately $525 to $1,200 per household, with the new plan increasing assistance by 20% for households that heat with oil and 15% for households that heat with utilities.

With Fuel Assistance (HEAP) applications now open, eligible low-income households can apply for help with their heating costs. HEAP supports households across Massachusetts, including working families, older adults, and many others who may be struggling with energy costs.
