LOCATION

In total, Somerville has $77.5 million in ARPA dollars to support an equitable and prosperous recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. Thus far, the City has committed $9 million to child care, rental assistance, and a Universal Basic Income pilot project. An additional $3 million is being considered for a free and reduced transit pass benefits program and more than $1 million was previously dedicated to emergency public health efforts, housing supports, youth services and a Digital Bridge Initiative to overcome inequities in digital/Internet access. The team is continuing to explore different priorities of how the funding should be used and we would like to hear directly from the senior community.

Please join us for an in-person discussion on Wednesday, March 9th at 11:00am at the Holland Street Center or virtually on Thursday, March 10th at 6:00pm via Zoom.

Please contact Debby Higgins at 617-625-6600 ext. 2321 or dhiggins@somervillema.gov to RSVP for either session. Grab and Go lunch available following the Wednesday, March 9th session.
