IMPACT: backpack

IMPACT: backpack aims to provide children involved with the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families (DCF) new backpacks and school supplies for back-to-school.

For kids and teens engaged with DCF, returning to school can be a welcoming routine in their challenging lives, but many kids face going back to the classroom without the necessary supplies. Education can be a powerful counterweight to the abuse, neglect and separation these kids and teens have faced, and we need your support to help us ensure they are set up for success.
