Senators Ed Markey and Elizabeth Warren recently announced $4.4 million in federal funding for community health and education projects, building on previous funding announcements for a total of $8.1 million for projects on the Cape & Islands.
The new projects to receive funds will include aid for Cape Abilities as it replaces its transportation fleet with fully electric vans; operating room, acute care, and radiation equipment at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital; free health services for residents with Alzheimer’s and dementia patients; and artistic learning opportunities at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown.
