A Closer Look at Housing on Cape Cod: Progress, Pressure, and What Comes Next
Housing Assistance CEO Alisa Magnotta and Catholic Charities Executive Director Sue Marzarella recently joined The Pat Desmarais Show on 95.1 News Radio to talk candidly about the state of housing and homelessness across Cape Cod and the Islands.
St. Joseph’s Homeless Shelter in Hyannis is relocating from 77 Winter Street to a new, modernized facility at 460 West Main Street, expected to open soon.
Homelessness on Cape Cod and the Islands reached a 10-year high in early 2024, with 568 individuals—including 164 children—identified as homeless, marking a 33% increase.
Their conversation offered both a clear-eyed look at the challenges—and a hopeful glimpse at progress underway.
