Our Mission
Breaktime is a Massachusetts-based nonprofit working to break the cycle of young adult homelessness.
We believe that it is time to break down barriers, break apart stigmas, and break into systems that hold back young adults experiencing housing insecurity. Through transitional employment and financial empowerment, Breaktime works to ensure job security, financial security, and—ultimately—housing security for these young people.
