I spoke at the ribbon-cutting and celebrated with Fellowship Place at the packed opening of the Birgitta Johnson building on Elm Street.

For people struggling with mental illness and homelessness, Fellowship Place’s daytime drop-in center will be an important lifeline. Part of the story of the humane community that is Fellowship Place comes from the vision of women starting with Phyllis McDowell and leading to Birgitta Johnson and Mary Guerrera.

The Independent has a story on the center’s opening.
