Additional information

Just A Start (JAS) was founded in 1968 as a community revitalization and youth training program focused on improving Cambridge's then-struggling Wellington-Harrington neighborhood.

Since its founding in 1968, JAS has grown into a multi-service community development corporation offering a wide variety of housing, programs, and community resources to Cambridge and nearby communities. JAS provides and preserves affordable housing, offers education and training for youth and adults, and builds community engagement.
