Sponsor Opportunity — Codman Square — July 2026

Fund The Chair.
Change The
Conversation.

You're not funding a program. You're funding the bridge that was missing — the engagement, the connection, the warm handoff, the accompaniment that turns a conversation into an outcome.

The Problem

An Engagement Problem.
Not A Treatment Problem.

The community is not disconnected from addiction. It is disconnected from the systems that are supposed to help. Not because resources don't exist. Because engagement is missing. Connection is missing. The warm human bridge between a person who needs something and the place that has it — that is what is missing.

"Programs sit empty while people who need them never walk through the door. The Chair Conversations™ is where that changes — in a space people already trust, on their terms, without a clipboard or a waiting room."

What Happens

A Structured Session
In A Space People Trust.

A structured community engagement session held inside Flipping Clippers Barbershop — 483 Washington St, Dorchester, MA 02124. A trained facilitator opens a real conversation about addiction — destigmatizing, connecting to resources, and building the trust that makes a warm handoff possible. Open to the full community. Men and women. Every generation.

The Format

20–45 minutes. Facilitator opens with a hook question, holds the space, closes with a resource bridge. No clipboards. No waiting rooms. No institutional friction. Just the room and a real conversation.

The Handoff

Every session ends with a resource bridge — and when someone is ready, a warm handoff. Not a number on a flyer. A direct human connection to someone who can help. When it matters, accompaniment follows.

The Bigger Picture

You're Not Funding
A Conversation.

You're funding the evidence base for a model that fills the gap every institution in this city has been trying to close for years. The gap between services that exist and people who never reach them. The gap between a referral and an arrival.

This session is the first documented proof point of a scalable community engagement infrastructure. The fall series targets a six-session sponsored contract with a health institution or foundation. Your $750 today is the documentation that makes that contract possible — and positions every sponsor as a co-architect of the model.
