NEW DATA INSIGHTS

The Science of Happiness, Health & Well-being

Health, happiness and well-being are top of mind for many as we progress through these uncertain times. This new Data Insights explores the science of happiness, highlights the critical role that happiness plays in your health and well-being, and provides key insights into how you can boost your happiness through intentional actions and strengthened social connections. By understanding the science of happiness, we can begin to identify ways in which we can all move toward a place of greater contentment and emotional well-being.

The City is aware that a lot of people in our community are struggling to access food, either because they no longer have a source of income or because they must quarantine at home while someone is sick. With the help of the Baker Administration, the City is working to mobilize all available resources to help.

Later this week, members of the Massachusetts National Guard will be coming to Chelsea to help with the distribution of food and other essential supplies.

There is no need to be alarmed by the presence of the Massachusetts National Guard.  These are not ICE or Immigration police.

The Guard will be here solely on a humanitarian mission to provide help to the City, at the City’s specific request.  They may wear a uniform, but they are not the U.S. military.  The women and men of the Massachusetts National Guard live in every community in the Commonwealth, including in Chelsea.  In this humanitarian effort, they will be working alongside employees from the City of Chelsea and partners from the Salvation Army and other nonprofit organizations, to help you.

The members of the Massachusetts National Guard will not inquire about your immigration status, nor about how you arrived in this City. Your documentation status is of no concern to them.  They are just here to help you during this emergency.

La ciudad está en conocimiento de que muchas personas en nuestra comunidad tienen dificultades para acceder a alimentos porque ya no tienen una fuente de ingresos o porque deben permanecer en la casa en cuarentena mientras alguien está enfermo.  Con la ayuda de la Administración Baker, la Ciudad está trabajando para movilizar todos los recursos disponibles para ayudar.

Al final de esta semana miembros de la Guardia Nacional prestarán su apoyo a los esfuerzos de distribución de alimentos y suministros esenciales a los residentes de Chelsea.

No hay necesidad de alarmarse. Estos no son agentes de ICE o policías de inmigración.

Las mujeres y los hombres de la Guardia Nacional de Massachusetts viven en todas las comunidades de la Commonwealth, incluso en Chelsea.  En este esfuerzo humanitario, trabajarán junto con empleados de la ciudad de Chelsea y organizaciones aliadas como son el Salvation Army y otras organizaciones sin fines de lucro.

Los miembros de la Guardia Nacional de Massachusetts no le preguntarán sobre su estado migratorio ni sobre cómo llegó a esta ciudad. Su estado de documentación no les concierne. Solo están aquí para ayudarlo durante esta emergencia.
