"Wash and Read" in New Bedford, New Partnerships in Wellesley, and Celebrating Friends in Melrose

Bethany Coito, Youth Services Coordinator for the New Bedford Public Library, is on the show this week to talk about their new program called “Wash and Read”. The library’s stocking books in laundromats around the city to keep kids entertained and engaged while parents take care of their laundry. Yoichi Udagawa, conductor of the Melrose Symphony Orchestra, details the symphony’s upcoming concert that focuses on friends, and special pieces that celebrate those relationships. Dr. Jennifer Schwartz is the Medical Director of Health Services at Wellesley College. The school’s started up a one of a kind partnership with Newton-Wellesley Hospital, where the hospital’s essentially taken over all the health services for students on campus. She joins Nichole to break down the services this covers, where the idea came from and how the rollout is going.
