At our regional gathering on Friday, November 16, the Network released a report on Homelessness in Western Massachusetts : The Numbers, The Solutions, The Partnerships.
Over 150 leaders attended, including our incoming and current state legislators, where we shared concrete to-do actions on both a community and statewide level. To-do actions are outlined in the report and in more detail for legislators in our Budget and Policy Recommendations.
We are so pleased that the public was able to “enter the room” though extensive and front page media coverage across each county, including:
Springfield Republican
Berkshire Eagle (Spotlight Investigation) and “by the numbers” breakdown here
Daily Hampshire Gazette and Greenfield Recorder (same article shared in each publication)
WAMC interview
Channel 22
We look forward to continuing the work together!
