One Vulnerable Child

It’s so hard to grow up in the system.

One Urgent Need

Sometimes a crib, emergency rent,
or dance classes, can be life changing.

One Step Forward

By providing missing resources,
we make better outcomes possible.

Did you know…

Most of the children and families involved in the juvenile court or child welfare system live in poverty and are often, because of inequities, of color.

Many are not able to achieve positive outcomes in these forums because a certain critical item or service is needed, and our governmental agencies rarely have sufficient resources to help.

That’s where we come in.
One Can Help (OCH) provides these missing resources.

Since 2006, OCH has been quickly, responsibly and impactfully changing lives across Massachusetts.

One child at a time.
One need at a time.
Thanks to you.

We ask, “what does each child need to succeed?”
