The Massachusetts Housing Court has suspended eviction proceedings in the state. In addition, the Department of Housing and Community Development has posted a page of resources, including rental assistance programs on its website. If you are unable to pay rent for reasons related to the pandemic, start by calling your landlord. They may be willing to make rent arrangements with you. Additional help may be available from a housing office in New Marlborough or nearby.
