Although adult resource centers are nothing new, The Thrive project (based in rural Massachusetts) is taking another look at how these centers function, and what exactly they function for.
Thrive encourages adults to not simply live life, but enjoy and explore it, offering “a chance to live better and participate more; to thrive instead of just survive.” Along with traditional resources like computers and resume help, Thrive provides chances at internships, apprenticeships, and even space for making art. It’s local, community based, and available for adults to change their day-to-day grind into something that grinds a little less.

Thanks for the Coverage, Kailyn and Co. We open our doors (at 37 Third St. in Turners Falss, MA) on 10/1 with lots of fund-and-awareness-raising festivities including a comedy show with Thrive advisory board member Eugene Mirman and his friends Michael Showalter, Leo Allen, and A.D. Miles.

If you’re someone who wants to BE a Thriver, not just a supporter (supporters of any kind, even with feedback, please contact us via: http://thethriveproject.org), we’ll have programs and other offerings listed on our website within the next week, as we finalize a few dates.
Thanks again!
