With nowhere to turn, Kathleen Dallaire brought her two young sons to live in a Northborough hotel after she left her abusive husband more than a year ago.
During her 15-month stay at the Northborough hotel, Dallaire struggled to find permanent housing and a place to raise her boys while working part-time.
Dallaire reached out to Friends of Families in Transition, who helped the mom in need find a home in Marlborough suited to her and her children.

Those kids will reap the rewards from such a strong Mother. Kate, if you read these, please keep in mind there are many organizations and people that would love to help. I personally am part of the Northborough/Southborough Neighbor Brigade through Lotsa Helping Hands. From making and delivering meals, landscaping to helping with Children, we're glad to help. Don't hesitate to ask, please. Here's a link http://www.neighborbrigade.org/chapters/NorthboroughSouthboroughMA/
