State Representative candidate Johnnie McKnight has secured significant endorsements in his campaign for the 11th Hampden District seat. State Senator Adam Gomez and former City Councilor and mayoral candidate Justin Hurst have both thrown their support behind McKnight, a move that could bolster his bid as the election approaches.
State Senator Adam Gomez (D-Springfield) joined the Healey-Driscoll Administration today in announcing grants worth nearly $275k being awarded in the Springfield area to combat the opioid epidemic, with Choice Recovery Coaching and the Black Behavioral Health Network set to receive $222,500 and $50,000 respectively to help the organizations deepen their impact, scale their work, and build a strong and sustainable infrastructure to meet the needs of populations in historically underserved communities.
