I don’t know where I’d be today without Breaktime…
It’s not just a job, it’s an actual career propellant that launches you forward to wherever you want to go.
Our Mission
Breaktime is a youth-led 501(c)(3) non-profit social enterprise that launches the careers of young adults experiencing homelessness through transitional employment and empowerment. We are a family of action-driven optimists who believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to work with dignity, nurture their unique talents, become stably housed, and fulfill their fullest potential. Together, we are building a financially sustainable organization and a community and culture of hope.
Our Work
The Breaktime Double Impact Initiative
In response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, Breaktime has launched an initiative with double impact. We aim to strengthen our communities (by serving thousands of meals each week to food-insecure populations in Greater Boston, manufacturing PPE and masks, and offering professional cleaning services to businesses as they reopen) while creating paid job opportunities for young adults experiencing homelessness.
