FM #209 - Housing and Transitional Assistance Discussion

FM #209

This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 209 in the series. We are now producing this in collaboration with Franklin.TV and Franklin Public Radio (wfpr.fm).

At the Franklin (MA) Town Council meeting held on Feb 12, 2020, there was an extended discussion on housing and social services related to it.

8. PRESENTATIONS/DISCUSSIONS
a. Housing Authority - Lisa Audette, Executive Director, Franklin Housing Authority

b. Transitional Assistance Discussion - Franklin Senior Center
Karen Alves, Senior Center Director
Erin Rogers, Social Services Coordinator

Several others stepped up to comment during the course of the two presentations. They introduced themselves as they began talking (per Town Council public meeting protocol)

The show notes include the link to the Senior Center document so you can follow along. The Housing Authority portion did not include a public document.
