I want to extend my support for the Valley CDC studio apartment supported housing project, which would be located on Northampton Road in Amherst.

I live in Florence and am very fortunate to be in a neighborhood that has a variety of low- and moderate-income housing, including another Valley CDC project similar to that proposed for Amherst.

There are many reasons why people are homeless or low-income, and there but for the grace of God go you and I. Welcome them and get to know them. Valley CDC is a well respected area leader in affordable housing. Please support this proposed project and your fellow human beings.
