Bracewell Youth Housing Project
The Louison House is excited to announce its new Bracewell Youth Housing Project at 111 Bracewell Ave., North Adams, MA. While move ins are scheduled to start as soon as the start of the week of July 21, we plan on the ribbon cutting ceremony on September 11 from 3:00-7:00 p.m. This event will honor the funders, our building team, our staff and board of directors, our community partners, the local community, and all that supported this important project. The full details are being finalized, but the ceremonial ribbon cutting with short greetings and words of wisdom will start close to 3:00 pm at 111 Bracewell Avenue in North Adams. The ribbon cutting ceremony will be followed by open houses with food at our other sites, along with an exciting small fundraiser to support the Bracewell Youth Housing. Parking is limited at the sites, but further directions on parking and possible shuttling will be provided closer to the event.
