To the Honorable Board:

 

I respectfully request that your Honorable Board accept a grant of $32,000 from Metro North Regional Employment Board Summer Youth Works Grant to the Health & Human Services Department, under the provisions of MGL Chapter 44, Section 53A. This grant does not require the commitment of new matching funds. The purpose of this grant is to pay for 16 youth to support our partnering agency Groundwork Somerville and a portion of the salary of Chris Hosman to support the youth and The Career Place which will offer services to the youth.

 

My staff will be available to answer any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration of this item.

 

Respectfully submitted,

Joseph A. Curtatone, Mayor
