PAIR Initiative Announced

Mayor Martin J. Walsh and the Mayor’s Office of Recovery Services announced the launch of the PAIR Initiative (Personal Advancement for Individuals in Recovery), a seed grant program that will consist of grants to individuals in recovery for personal wraparound services needed to maintain and continue recovery. The PAIR Initiative is a partnership between the City of Boston, Warren and Doris Buffett’s Letters Foundation, and the Gavin Foundation, and is the first program of its kind in the United States. PAIR is a pilot project that is funded by the Letters Foundation and currently available to individuals participating in Gavin Foundation’s vocational, reentry and substance use programs. Find out more about this innovative program.
