Hotel shelter closures impact western Mass. towns
WEST SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WWLP) – The release of the audit comes as the state plans to close its remaining motel and hotel shelters this summer, including the remaining few in our area. Dozens of families are still being housed in hotels in our area, including in West Springfield. On Tuesday, 22News spoke with the city's mayor about how closing those shelters will impact the community. Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey announced on Monday that all hotel and motel shelters will close six months ahead of the original schedule. Western Massachusetts population drops as state numbers rise Massachusetts is the only state to have a 'Right to Shelter' law, meaning families with children and pregnant women have access to temporary housing when they are experiencing homelessness. While the law may have temporarily helped with the migrant crisis, many were not in favor of the hotel shelters, including State Senator John Velis, who voted against it multiple times. 'We just do not have the money,' Velis said. 'We didn't have the money three years ago, we didn't have the money two years ago. Right now, with all the uncertainty at the federal government, we most certainly do not have the money.' There were once as many as 100 hotel and motel shelters across the state in the summer of 2023. Now, as of April 30 this year, only 32 remain. One of the remaining shelters is located at the old Clarion Hotel in West Springfield. Mayor Will Reichelt told 22News it has been difficult for the town. 'Schools have really the largest impact, because it is the students that are coming and building up classroom capacity,' Reichelt said. 'So that'll certainly be better for our school districts as a whole.' He said not only will it be a relief for the school district, but also a step in the right direction for the families in the shelter. 'The Clarion is a hotel. It is not built as a shelter, it is not meant to be long-term housing,' Reichelt said. 'So, I think this is a win-win for both sides, for the town and its resources, and also for the folks that were living there to get into real, actual housing.' All of the shelters have been ordered to close by the end of the summer. The state spent about $1 billion annually on the system for the past two years. Senator Velis said there has been English language education and job training to support families moving out of the shelters, so he's optimistic that means more people are going to be joining the workforce.

Massachusetts to close all hotel shelters this summer
BOSTON (WPRI) — Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey said she plans to close all of the state's hotel shelters six months ahead of schedule. The 32 remaining hotels being used as shelters, including the Clarion Hotel in Taunton, will close this summer. They were originally set to shut down by the end of the year. Healey said the number of families in shelters is expected to drop below 4,000 by then. 'When we took office, homeless families were being placed in hotel shelters across the state,' Healey said. 'A hotel is no place to raise a family, and they are the least cost-effective. That's why we implemented reforms to lower caseloads and the cost of the shelter system. We also promised to close all hotel shelters by the end of the year.' Healey said 85-90% of families that were looking for shelter 'are now longtime Massachusetts families.' The Bay State capped its emergency shelter system at 7,500 families in 2023 as an influx of migrants arrived in the state. Healey has also proposed changes to the state's Right to Shelter law that would require families to provide proof of Massachusetts residency and lawful immigration status. The governor said the drop in families seeking shelter can be attributed to a six-month length-of-stay requirement, workforce training and work to help families find stable housing. 'I'm pleased that we are ahead of schedule, with more families getting jobs and moving to stable housing,' Healey said. Download the and apps to get breaking news and weather alerts.

How many families are in Massachusetts emergency housing assistance
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WWLP) – There are 5,449 families in Massachusetts who are currently being housed in emergency housing in Massachusetts, the state's biweekly report indicates. In December last year, the Healey Administration changed how it handles families' needs and risks, and assigns them to shelters. They are placed on one of two tracks, the Bridge or the Rapid shelter. Both tracks have the overarching goal of making shelter stays rare, brief, and non-recurring, and aim to give families the resources they need to acquire stable housing and employment. Bridge track families are considered to have higher or more complex needs and are permitted to stay in traditional shelters for up to six months. There are 5,201 families currently in this system. Rapid track families are determined to have lower support needs and are permitted to stay in temporary shelter sites for up to 30 days. There are 248 families currently in this system. Clarion Hotel in West Springfield closing its emergency shelter The state is also working to transition families out of hotels and place them into safe and stable housing. Over the last 14 days, 1,709 hotel rooms have been in use for those in the emergency shelter system, and 92 have since been phased out. As of April 3rd, 5,449 families are in shelters or hotels, 2,316 of those entered Massachusetts as migrants, refugees, or asylum seekers. In western Massachusetts, around 537 families are being housed in emergency shelters. In western Massachusetts, there are currently no Rapid track families at temporary respite centers. The following towns and cities have families in the Bridge track: Amherst: 6 Chicopee: 44, 30 hotel rooms in use Greenfield: 10 Holyoke: 163 Northampton: 8, 8 hotel rooms in use Pittsfield: 15 Springfield: 254 West Springfield: 37, 36 hotel rooms in use Domestic violence or abuse: 417 Health and Safety Risk / Ask to Leave, Threatened Eviction: 1,231 Housing situation not meant for human habitation: 1,860 Fire, flood, or natural disaster: 35 Asked to leave a Teen Living Program: 11 Other: 1,425 Eviction: 464 In fiscal year 2024, the state spent $894 million on the system. In total, since October 2022, Massachusetts has spent over $58.3 million in supplemental funding for school districts across the state. According to the report, fiscal year 2025's project costs will be around $1.064 billion.

What's on in Norway: Six great things to do in April 2025
Stavanger City Festival From April 24th to April 27th, Stavanger's streets will be filled with music, dances and storytelling events. The performance, " The Story of Our City ," is considered to be the celebration's main attraction. This performance will be a retelling of the city's history across five of the city's most iconic locations. Events will be suitable for adults and children alike, and more information is available on Stavanger Municipality's website. There are a number of events celebrating Stavanger's 900-year-long history in 2025. Nidaros Blues April 24th-27th will see artists gather at the laidback Nidaros Blues Festival . This year's festival will be the 26th edition and will feature blues musicians from around the world, as well as Norway. There will be special events for people of all ages, and most of the events will be held at the Clarion Hotel at Brattøra. Both day tickets and festival passes were still available at the time of writing. Bergen Marathon There are still slots left for the half marathon in Bergen on April 26th. You'll be able to enjoy the event's atmosphere at both the starting and finishing lines located at the historic Bryggen Wharf in the Old Town. Inferno Metal Festival Taking place over the Easter weekend, when most Norwegians will have their sights set on cosy cabin trips, this festival draws metal acts from all over the world. The festival will take place across several locations in the city, with four-day and day passes available to purchase. Norway's black metal scene rose to prominence in the 1990s, capturing both domestic and international headlines. Advertisement Easter Plenty of things make Easter a great time to be in Norway. For starters, workers will have plenty of time off to enjoy with their families. Most people use the Easter weekend to get out of the city and spend time in nature or at a cosy cabin. Easter also means a week off school for pupils at Norwegian schools. Easter Sunday is on April 20th this year. Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Monday are all public holidays in Norway. Last chance to ski The beginning of April will represent the last chance for most people in southern Norway to either alpine or cross-country ski. Alpine resorts will close for the season in April, and snow in cross-country areas will recede to make way for hiking trails. The mild weather and the typical spring sunshine make it a great time to be outside, enjoying the last of the winter sports season.
