Many folks seeking recovery do not want to be anywhere near Mass & Cass because of the pain, trauma & suffering they have endured out on this half a mile radius. This is why adding anymore services/resources to this area is counterproductive.

An Intern went undercover to the “Comfort Site” on Atkinson St. Listen in how the city employee states “You can use and do your thing over there & BPD wont say anything” This is not harm reduction, this is an environment that’s destroying lives. @MassGovernor @boston25

@RicardoNArroyo What about this humanitarian crisis on Mass & Cass? Wait, I forgot, not your district.

@MayorWu @NorthEndONS @Boston_ONS @BostonParksDept Mayor. Any chance we can host a coffee hour at Nubian Square so we can talk about the quality of life issues that are impacting this area?

Wow no one at city hall thought it would be a good idea to inform residents whose district has changed due to redistricting? Incredible. GOTV tho.
