Thanks to @ArlingtonMAPD and Officer Joe for their dedication and partnership in helping find homes for those most in need.
The Homeless Outreach Task Force housed another individual on Thursday. The team made a quick stop at Walmart to get some essentials on the way. A special thanks to the Somerville Homeless Coalition for all their hard work. #TeamWork #ArlingtonMA

Grateful to be one of the 13 awarded a grant from the @MassAGO today in partnership with @challiance, @goodmeasures, @icommhealth and @TuftsHealthPlan. Our goal is to show that food is medicine; that food is the least expensive health intervention. #SocialDeterminants
