STUCK IN NEUTRAL: Woonsocket City Council Vice President Valerie Gonzalez, left, and Michelle Taylor, an official at the nonprofit Community Care Alliance, stand with the “Dignity Bus.” The city used $150,000 of its American Rescue Plan Act aid to purchase the 20-bed emergency shelter for the homeless last year, and the alliance operated it. But funding for ongoing costs ran out and the bus has been dormant since May 31. Gonzalez says more funding is coming.
