POAH COMMUNITIES LLC
BOSTON, MA

At POAH Communities, we believe that access to affordable, safe and healthy housing is a right; but, it is only one part of the answer in taking on the barriers to opportunity. We have found the best way to have a positive impact for individuals and families across our portfolio is by working with our communities in finding solutions. We take a holistic approach to the work of Community Impact by engaging our staff, residents and neighborhood partners in creating strategies towards shared goals across our outcome areas. We are working to make our communities more than just a home. They can become strong, vibrant places of engagement, innovation and prosperity. Joyce Bullock, Hillcrest Village, Providence, RI My wife and I are both disabled and use power wheelchairs. We love how easy it is to get to nearby grocery stores, restaurants and bus routes. The apartment itself is delightful. We love the view out the windows of the conservation land behind our building. The staff has always been helpful to meet our needs as residents and wheelchair users. In short, it is a delight for us to live here. I am happy to both live and work at Billings Forge. I’ve worked at the Kitchen Café and Firebox for the past four years learning a number of different roles. My job allows me to provide a safe and comfortable home for my family while I build experience in the culinary field.
