Philly’s COVID-era resource hubs are closing as services move to new centers. Some residents are fighting to keep them

Philadelphia’s neighborhood resource hubs, established during the pandemic to provide free masks, tests, and other services, will close June 17 due to expiring federal funding. Public health officials plan to move services to new community action centers, but residents and advocates are opposing the closures, arguing for city funding to maintain the hubs. Remy Campbell, a nurse with health risks, highlights the importance of the hubs for ongoing pandemic precautions.
