The downtown offices of Community Teamwork will be closing at 3pm today, November 17th, due to lack of water from construction in the area. This includes the administrative offices and all programs located at 155 Merrimack St, 165 Merrimack St, 17 Kirk St, and 45 Kirk St. The Children's Village at the Mill and the Youth Opportunity Center (167 Dutton St) are unaffected.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Community Teamwork joined the Head Start Association today at CTI's James Houlares Early Learning Center to advocate for approval of the Head Start Federal Funding. We heard from staff and parents of Head Start students whose lives have been directly impacted by the government shutdown.

"Head Start is more than a childcare program, it is a lifeline. It is where children gain the foundational skills they need to succeed in school and in life. It is where families find support and guidance, where access to essential services can mean the difference between thriving and struggling. And it is where our staff bring their hearts, expertise and patience every single day. We need the government to reopen, and we need our Head Start Programs funded."
