CONWAY â The Way Station, a day resource center for the areaâs homeless population, plans to use a $10,000 grant from the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation to study emergency housing options, say board members Jeannette Heidmann and the Revs. Nathan Hall and Gail Doktor.
Doktor, pastor of the Jackson Community Church, said she and Hall, pastor of the Lutheran Church of the Nativity in North Conway, along with treasurer Heidmann and other volunteers, founded The Way Station two years ago as a way to address the needs of the homeless in the Mount Washington Valley.
According to Heidmann, who wrote the grant application along with fellow board member Julie Bosak, the recently received grant âwill enable the development and refinement of a long-range strategic plan with particular emphasis toward examining and developing housing options for those experiencing homelessness or housing insecurities.â

WORCESTER Becker College, whose origins date to the late 1700s, will close at the end of the academic year.
The school last month made it clear that its future was in doubt, owing to financial struggles caused in large part by the pandemic.
On Monday, Christine Cassidy, chairwoman of the Board of Trustees, confirmed what students and neighbors of its campuses in Worcester and Leicester had hoped to avoid.
In a post on the Becker College website, she wrote: It is with deep regret that I share the news that on March 28, the Board of Trustees voted to permanently close Becker College at the end of the current academic year. The College will provide academic, support and transitional services to students through August 31, 2021. Following an orderly transition, classes will not resume in the Fall.
