New England Center for Children

The New England Center for Children (NECC) provides caring, comprehensive services to children with autism from 3 to 22 years old. Children at NECC have a broad range of ability levels. They consider each child’s unique learning style before developing a realistic plan to foster individual achievement, self-esteem, and personal independence. They believe children with autism deserve the utmost respect and support as they work toward achieving greater independence. Children who are diagnosed early, receive intensive behavioral instruction, and receive top services based on the scientifically-proven principles of applied behavior analysis (ABA), have the best outcomes.

Project 351

Project 351 believes that inside every young person is a brave, bold leader with dreams of a better world and the skill, passion, and creativity to achieve their vision. When called to serve, this generation responds with an urgency of now. Yet, too often, a young person’s desire to lead isn’t matched with requisite resources, mentors, and platforms. This untapped potential is our most precious resource and an extraordinary force for good. Project 351 is determined to meet the demand for high quality, enriching service opportunities that respect and reflect the unique gifts and world changing aspirations of young people. And, to joyfully mobilize that abundance of talent and goodness to uplift, unite, and transform communities. The Project 351 began in 2011, when former Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick sought to celebrate his second inaugural with a focus on young people and community. The concept of Project 351, which had been developed by Carolyn Casey, reflected Governor Patrick’s belief in the Beloved Community and the unlimited potential of young people. His embrace led to the realization of Project 351 as a one-day celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., statewide unity, and youth leadership. By day’s end, a movement of hope-in-action had been founded. And, with it, an invitation to serve and lead for eighth graders in each of Massachusetts' 351 cities and towns. From that day forward, Project 351 Ambassadors would unite the entire state as one team, one community in service to cause greater than self. One year later, Governor Patrick convened the second Class of Ambassadors to celebrate Dr. King and kick-off a 12-month leadership journey. The mission of Project 351, as an independent, nonprofit youth leadership organization, had begun!
