"Individuals or families who earned less than $49,000 last year still can get their returns prepared at no cost at three area Volunteer Income Tax Assistance centers coordinated by New Life Corp. and the Coalition For Working Families. The VITA locations are open through Thursday at Columbus Family Academy, 255 Blatchley Ave., and Truman School, 114 Truman St., both in New Haven; and West Haven Community House at 227 Elm St., West Haven. Volunteer tax preparers are available from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Ariel Martinez, executive director of New Life, said more than 2,500 filers were helped by the VITA program last year. 'Our mission is to work with individuals and families in increasing their economic security,' Martinez said of the nonprofit association’s work."
