About this organization
Mission
The Portuguese Organization for Social Services and Opportunities (POSSO) is a non-profit charitable corporation and its mission is to improve the quality of life of low-income immigrants and their families, and other disadvantaged persons, by serving as a bridge to the resources of the greater community. In pursuit of this mission, the organization provides social, recreational, cultural and educational activities as well as mobilizing support for other community programs that protect and enhance the human potential. We hear the concerns and needs that individuals bring to us, and we assist in addressing the appropriate public or private entity in search of equitable resolution.
