We did a push before the storms, but now that snow is on everyone’s minds, we thought it would be a good time to remind teens, seniors, and disabled persons to sign up for the City’s shoveling assistance program.

Teens who sign up will receive a payment for each house they shovel out. Interested youth need to sign up with the Office of Commissions and be available when there’s a snow storm.

Seniors and individuals with disabilities need to sign up through the Council on Aging… and complete a CORI check (criminal record).

Call the Council on Aging for shoveling assistance for senior citizens and persons with disabilities at 617-625-6600 (x2300). Youths interested in shoveling should call The Office of Somerville Commissions at 617-625-6600 (x2406).
