AMHERST – The state stopped placing homeless families in Center of Human Development programs last month and ordered the Springfield nonprofit to close its Jessie’s House shelter in Amherst after the agency failed to properly report allegations that employees sexually harassed a resident, one of them coercing her into sex.
The state has paid the agency $70 million to house homeless families over the last three years.
