Gov. Maura Healey announces all hotel shelters in Massachusetts to close this summer

Governor Maura Healey announced Monday that all hotel migrant shelters in Massachusetts will close this summer.

The closure is set to take place six months earlier than originally expected. Only 32 hotels remain, down from a peak of 100 last summer.

The state says reforms — like a six-month stay limit, job placement programs, and stronger case management — have helped more families leave the shelters.
