CAN-DO broke ground on April 2, 2002 at a large historic home on Christina Street in Newton Highlands to begin the creation of two new properties, Kayla's House and the Highlands Glen Condominiums (see site plan below - on left, Kayla's House in original building; center and right, two new duplexes for Highlands Glen Condominiums).
At groundbreaking, left to right: Ted Hess-Mahan, President of CAN-DO, Jason A. Rosenberg, Donna M. Rosenberg, Josephine A. McNeil, Executive Director of CAN-DO, Mayor David B.Cohen
The first property is Kayla's House, named in memory of Oak Hill bus accident victim Kayla A. Rosenberg, whose father, Newton attorney Jason Rosenberg, provided many hours of legal assistance on this project. Since completion in 2003 Kayla's House has provided transitional housing for young mothers and children who participate in the Newton Community Service Center's Young Parent Program.
