Talbot Council grants Neighborhood Services of Talbot contingency funding

EASTON — The Talbot County Council granted a $172,000 request from Neighborhood Services of Talbot during its meeting Tuesday night, compensating for a significant federal cut to the nonprofit’s budget. Andy Hollis, the director of the nonprofit, told the council this “unfortunate” request is the result of federal cuts to funding used to aid the homeless during the winter months. As a result, Neighborhood Services will see a loss of $142,000. “That’s a 50% reduction in the amount of homelessness funds we use for eviction prevention and for putting people up that are homeless in our local hotel,” Hollis told the council. Hollis stressed that this is not a permanent solution to homelessness, but these services save lives when temperatures drop. An estimated 30 people used the resource last winter to avoid the cold. “This is a band-aid,” Hollis said. “This is not the way to solve homelessness, this is a way for us to put people up, especially in extreme weather conditions…that don’t have any other place to go and in freezing temperatures would run the risk of hypothermia or death, plain and simple.” The answer to a problem like this long-term, Hollis explained, would be a low-barrier homeless
