Hubbardston senior center plans computer setup, continues outreach with fuel and housing referrals
Summary
The Town of Hubbardston senior center accepted a vendor quote to set up its computer systems and discussed outreach services including fuel assistance referrals, MassHealth enrollment help, and information on a new Westminster housing development behind the center.
Chair (S1) told members a vendor quoted $2,400 to come to the center to install and set up the computer systems and transfer information; the quote covers the system setup but not additional wiring or phone cabling. "That's $2,400 for them to come down and do the computer systems to set us all up and everything," Chair (S1) said.
Separately, members outlined outreach services: they are helping residents with fuel assistance applications and MassHealth referrals, directing people to the Fitchburg Community Health Center and other local resources for application support. Member (S2) offered to compile referral contacts and contact a tech-support volunteer who visits monthly for device help. The group also discussed touring a nearby Westminster housing development and sharing application details with eligible residents.
Next steps: proceed with scheduling the vendor for computer setup and compile resource lists for fuel assistance and housing referrals to distribute to center patrons.
