Community Action for Better Housing (CABH) is proud to announce a $15,000 grant from the Bristol County Savings Charitable Foundation (BCSB) in support of our housing and support services programs.

This funding will help create a dedicated community space for our Support Services Program, strengthening our ability to provide safe, stable housing and essential resources for individuals and families in need throughout our region.

On June 10, 2026, CABH representatives attended the Foundation’s annual grant presentation breakfast at White’s of Westport, joining nonprofit partners from across the area to celebrate local impact and collaboration.

We thank the Bristol County Savings Charitable Foundation for its continued commitment to affordable housing, community development, and stronger, healthier communities.
