SCHENECTADY With two recent funding awards announced by Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, Bethesda House of Schenectady has cleared all the funding hurdles and will be able to move ahead with construction of a new homeless shelter.
Cuomo announced earlier this week that the plans will receive $6.2 million in funding, marking the final funding piece on a long-term effort to expand housing for the homeless in the vicinity of Bethesda’s 834 State St. location, which also has shelter beds and apartments for the homeless.
