Massachusetts is the only U.S. state with a right-to-shelter law, which mandates that families and pregnant people are housed. Currently, over 8,000 families are in state-run shelters or on an overflow list. That doesn’t include the dozens of people — mostly Haitian migrants — who are sleeping at Logan Airport and spending their days at the Church of the Holy Spirit in Mattapan. Sarah Betancourt of gbhnews (npub1y8f…25hj) spoke to some of the families about their experiences.
