Services
IN ADDITION
At the ABCD Roxbury/North Dorchester Neighborhood Opportunity Center, we offer Senior Brown Bag food distribution for Boston residents age 65 and older on the last Tuesday of the month. We also host the Happy Hands senior community crochet and knitting circle.
From December through March, we distribute winter coats to children and adults, and during the holiday season, we provide holiday meals and gifts for those most in need.
If you need notary services, we’re here for that, too.
The Food Pantry is open Monday through Thursday 10:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. Walk-ins are welcome first come first serve. EXCEPTIONS: The food pantry is closed the first and third Thursday and the last Wednesday of the month.

GIVE BACK BY VOLUNTEERING
ABCD could not do what we do without the help of passionate volunteers. Join us for a day-long project, help out at a major event, or lend a hand on a regular basis. You’ll make a world of difference to our neighbors in need.
NEIGHBORHOOD ROOTS
ABCD is a part of your neighborhood. Each of our locations has a Neighborhood Advisory Board whose members keep us in touch with your community’s current issues, needs and goals. Interested in serving on the advisory board? Have questions or comments? Call or email us anytime.
