Migrants staying in emergency shelters in Massachusetts say they are grateful for the help the commonwealth is providing them. Subeidy Romero is a Venezuelan migrant staying at a hotel turned into an emergency shelter. She says they have been visited by medics who have provided health assessments. "We went through a lot of things on the way, but thanks to God, we are here," she said. Romero said children among them are being enrolled in school. These resources are being provided by community organizations tapped as service providers for the emergency shelters — however there are about 40 hotel shelters without a contracted service provider.
