New Enty's Offices are Moving! 

 New Entry will move its offices on March 15th, 2011, as part of a consolidation effort with our fiscal sponsor, Community Teamwork, Inc. New Entry will join together with other CTI programs to share space at our new home located on 155 Merrimack Street, 3rd Floor, Lowell, MA.  This consolidation ultimately allows us to offer better services to our clients, as we enjoy cross-pollination with the many programs and services which CTI offers.  The new office is about 5 minutes walk from our existing office.  We look forward to meeting our clients in our new space, beginning March 15th!
