Horizons for Homeless Children — caring for young children

35+ years of standing beside families.

Horizons for Homeless Children is the Commonwealth's leading organization devoted exclusively to serving young children experiencing homelessness — through early education, family advocacy, playspaces, and policy change.

About Horizons

A family's story

"For the first time, I felt like someone was really in our corner."

When we lost our apartment, I didn't know where to turn. Horizons gave my kids a classroom that felt like home — and gave me an advocate who helped me find work and our new place. We're still writing the next chapter, but we're writing it together.
