Haley House Boston We Believe in Food With Purpose & The Power of Community

Haley House uses food with purpose and the power of community to break down barriers between people, empower individuals, and strengthen neighborhoods. We believe in radical solutions: solving problems at their root by challenging attitudes that perpetuate suffering and building alternative models. Founded as a “house of hospitality” in 1966, Haley House has grown into a multifaceted organization

deeply rooted in the South End and Roxbury. Today our work falls into 5 interconnected categories: direct services (soup kitchen, food pantry), permanent affordable housing (110+ units in scattered South End sites), urban agriculture (a school yard plot in the South End, an urban farm in Roxbury), education and training (Take Back the Kitchen cooking classes for youth and the re-entry for returning citizens), and a social enterprise restaurant (Haley House Bakery Café, currently on hiatus).

This month, we hosted a cookout for graduates of Haley House's LiFT reentry program. Members of the LiFT community came together to play games, enjoy food from the grill, and connect with fellow alumni.

The alumni community is always growing: since the transition to a cohort model, 71 returning citizens have become LiFT graduates! We’re proud to celebrate our LiFT graduates and our entire community of returning citizens.

Haley House is honored to have been selected by the City of Boston to receive funding through the Community Preservation Act, which provides essential support for affordable housing, open space, and historic preservation projects. Funding will support a major repair of the roof at 23 Dartmouth Street, ensuring the continued operation of our Soup Kitchen as well as Haley House's offices and Soup Kitchen Team (formerly Live In Community) residential spaces.
