Agreement Allows HCC, STCC Students to Live on Elms Campus

CHICOPEE — Elms College is entering into a new agreement with Springfield Technical Community College (STCC) and Holyoke Community College (HCC) that will allow students of those two community colleges to reside in residence halls at Elms. The presidents of the three colleges, Harry Dumay of Elms, George Timmons of HCC, and John Cook of STCC, ratified the shared student agreement in a signing ceremony on Oct. 8. Elms has existing articulation agreements with HCC and STCC, under which students who satisfactorily complete an associate degree program at either community college are guaranteed admission into a bachelor’s degree program at Elms. This agreement, however, is the first time Elms has opened its residence halls to students enrolled in another school. HCC and STCC students, under the agreement, are allowed to live in Elms residence halls during the school year and will pay for room and board. They are required to sign up for a campus meal plan and pay for an annual campus parking permit if they intend to bring a car on campus. Participating HCC and STCC students will be eligible to use the campus library and fitness center, participate in some student activities, and have access to campus amenities and services, including laundry facilities, WiFi, health services, and public safety, at no additional cost. The agreement is in place through June 30, 2026, but may be renewed each year if the three parties agree.

Opinion

Editorial

 

In 2019, BusinessWest created a new recognition program, one to recognize a large and significant constituency, and one whose accomplishments often went unrecognized.

We thought about calling it Women in Business, but then we decided this didn’t fit the bill, as we didn’t want to recognize only individuals’ accomplishments in the business world.

Rather, we wanted to celebrate women of achievement, women who stand out, women who go far beyond what’s in their job description, women who are making a difference. So a name came about naturally: Women of Impact.

The plan was to honor those who excel in their chosen field, or fields, as the case may be, but who are also giving back in the community, who inspire others around them, who serve as mentors to others and especially younger women, and who, as one of our honorees is fond of saying, ‘show up.’

We’ve done that, and this year’s class continues that tradition, as the stories that begin on page W4 clearly show. They are:

• Tara Brewster, vice president of Business Development and director of Philanthropy at Greenfield Savings Bank. Her passion for connecting the community and boosting nonprofits is reflected in both her career and her activities outside the bank as she asks, “what are we here for if not to make a difference?”

• Ayanna Crawford, president of AC Consulting and Media Services. Her work spans her consulting business, numerous nonprofit boards, serving the public as chief of staff to state Rep. Orlando Ramos, and a flourishing organization called Take the Mic, which gives both young people and adults the confidence they need to be public speakers.

• Tracy Friedenberg, executive director of Bacon Wilson, P.C. Early on, she decided that she wanted to serve in roles where she could help team members thrive and drive organizational success. She’s been described as “a visionary leader, compassionate mentor, and an extraordinary human being” who is actively involved in her community.

• Rania Kfuri, vice president of Philanthropy, Sales, and Marketing at Glenmeadow. Showing up has been her credo, and the continuation of a pattern set by several generations of her extended family. Showing up means excelling at work, giving back to the community, mentoring others, literally showing up at events, and convening others to help solve regional problems.

• Chelsea Kline, executive director of Cancer Connection. She understood the value of this “lean, scrappy” nonprofit when her mother accessed its services two decades ago, and today, she and her team successfully build community support for a wide array of programs that bring calm, courage, and even fun to people dealing with the harshest challenge of their lives.

• Angelina Ramirez, CEO of Stavros Center for Independent Living. For the past 35 years, she has been dedicated to this critical nonprofit that helps people with disabilities secure resources and equipment, stay in their homes, access education and job opportunities, and otherwise achieve the kind of live they desire to live.

• Amanda Sanderson, executive director of the Resilience Center of Franklin County. Inspired by her mother’s resiliency in overcoming physical and sexual abuse, she has dedicated her life to leading nonprofits, which she calls the ‘glue’ of our society, and constantly raising the bar when it comes to serving clients and acting as a convener and collaborator.

• Sarah Rose Stack, lecturer of Public Relations at UMass Amherst — just the latest chapter in a compelling story. Inspired by music teachers, she overcame poverty in childhood to excel in music and the arts, and they remain a big part of who she is. Another big part is being a mentor and the kind of teacher who can change a life, as her teachers changed hers.

We at BusinessWest congratulate the Women of Impact class of 2025 and are grateful for their powerful example and inspiring stories.

Opinion

Editorial

 

Aaron Vega, director of Planning & Economic Development in Holyoke, will assume the reins at the Western Massachusetts Economic Development Council (EDC) in January. And he takes the helm at a very intriguing time for the region.

Indeed, many of the traditional pillars of this region’s economy, especially healthcare and higher education, are struggling and shedding jobs rather than adding them. Manufacturing is more than holding its own, but still coping with workforce issues — specifically the retirement of Baby Boomers and difficulty with replacing them. Other sectors are shrinking as a wave of mergers and acquisitions continues unabated.

Meanwhile, emerging sectors are trying to … emerge. This list includes food science, quantum computing, and green energy, with several of the businesses at the forefront of these efforts located in Holyoke.

All of this — as well as the EDC’s broad mission itself — ties back nicely to something Dave Fontaine Jr., president of the construction firm Fontaine Brothers Inc., said of this region at the recent Developers Conference in downtown Springfield.

He said of the 413, and he’s not alone in these sentiments, “it’s a great place to live … if you can make a living.”

And that’s essentially where we’re at right now in this region — trying to enable those who might want to live here for all the reasons we know about, especially quality of life, to make a living.

And while that is not Vega’s official job description, it might as well be. The EDC is charged with leading and coordinating efforts to stimulate the region’s economy, including efforts that don’t fall in traditional categories of economic development, like workforce development, entrepreneurship, and even marketing.

We’ve followed Vega’s career for nearly 20 years now, since he was a freelance film editor, yoga studio owner, and Holyoke city councilor, a package that earned him a spot in BusinessWest’s 40 Under Forty class of 2010. He would later go on to serve four terms as a state representative before returning to Holyoke City Hall as director of Planning & Economic Development.

He brings to his new post connections in Boston and across the region, but also a track record for getting things done, especially with complicated projects and bringing companies to this region to get started — and, hopefully, put down deep roots.

We believe he is the right person to lead the EDC at this critical juncture and continue the work of the agency and its outgoing president, Rick Sullivan, to make this region not only a great place to live, but one where people can make a living.

The program is designed to be intimate and highly interactive, ensuring every participant has a voice.

Opinion

Opinion

By Karen Serra

 

Autistic people and their families in Western Mass. have been reaching out to ServiceNet’s Autism Connections team in recent days, unsettled by new claims about what causes autism. Some are worried, some are angry, and many are simply exhausted.

Parents want to know how to sort through the noise and find real answers. Autistic adults want their voices respected in conversations that so often exclude them. Everyone deserves information they can trust.

Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental condition shaped by many factors — genetic, environmental, and still others that science has yet to fully map. Autism is not one story, one profile, or one path. It is many stories, as autistic people have a wide range of strengths and challenges. And the support we offer must reflect this diversity.

While causes remain under study, evidence is strong about what helps. Early support — speech therapy, occupational therapy, and behavioral strategies — can expand opportunities for children. Inclusive classrooms give autistic students the chance to learn and grow alongside their peers. Social groups give autistic people of all ages opportunities to come together in supportive spaces where they can be themselves, gain confidence, and build friendships.

Autism Connections has long partnered with autistic individuals and their families to navigate this landscape. Our workshops translate complicated research into practical strategies. One-on-one consultations give families clarity about services and next steps. And our annual conference lifts up the voices of autistic people alongside researchers and professionals, so the community hears directly from those with lived experience.

Autistic individuals and their families deserve better than alarm and confusion. ServiceNet and its programs, including Autism Connections, will continue to be a steady source of reliable information, grounded in science and respect. We will continue to provide spaces where autistic people can lead, connect, and thrive. And we will continue to listen — because autistic experiences and perspectives are essential to this conversation.

Autism is not a passing headline. It is part of the fabric of our community. With the right support and with autistic voices at the center, people on the spectrum live full and meaningful lives. That is where our attention belongs, and that is the commitment Autism Connections and ServiceNet will keep.

 

Karen Serra is vice president of Family Services at ServiceNet, which includes Autism Connections.

Opinion

Opinion

By Pam Thornton

 

Time is the most valuable currency in human resources, and it’s slipping away. Too many HR professionals are still hesitant to adopt artificial intelligence (AI), even as it quietly transforms industries all around us. The clock is ticking, and HR leaders who delay are risking falling behind.

AI is not a futuristic concept; it’s already embedded in daily tools you may be using. Microsoft, LinkedIn, Zoom, and Google all have AI-powered features that analyze, summarize, and automate routine work. According to a 2024 SHRM survey, 26% of organizations use AI to support HR-related activities.

What’s at stake? According to a Deloitte-based analysis, HR professionals spend up to 57% of their work time on administrative tasks, which is equivalent to more than 22 hours per week in a standard 40-hour work week. Imagine what could be achieved if those hours were reinvested into strategy, culture, and leadership development.

Here are some of the benefits of AI for HR:

• Time savings. AI-driven recruiting tools can reduce screening time by up to 75% while improving candidate fit.

• Better insights. Predictive analytics allow HR teams to anticipate turnover risks, identify skill gaps, and strengthen workforce planning.

• Improved compliance. AI-powered auditing tools can scan policies and employee records for inconsistencies and legal risks in minutes.

• Enhanced employee experience. Chatbots and virtual assistants now answer common HR and benefits questions 24/7, freeing human resources staff to handle complex employee relations conversations and high-value issues in the organization.

• Upskilling opportunities. AI helps identify internal talent ready for reskilling, closing skills gaps and reducing external hiring costs.

For HR professionals, the ‘wait and see’ approach is costly. Competitors who adopt AI now are gaining efficiency, reducing costs, and positioning HR as a true strategic driver. According to a study from Gartner, the share of HR leaders who are actively planning or already deploying GenAI has jumped from 19% in June 2023 to 61% in January 2025. This sharp rise highlights growing recognition of GenAI’s power to reshape HR processes.

We can’t just ‘lean on’ and set it and forget it when using AI. When we ‘lean in’ and provide input and human oversight to synthesize the information and use our critical thinking skills to leverage AI as a tool, we gain the strategic advantage. Humans will always remain at the heart of HR.

The message is clear: HR’s future isn’t AI versus human, it’s AI plus human. Those who embrace the tools today will lead the transformation tomorrow. So, the real question is: how much longer can you afford to wait?

Opinion

Editorial

 

Back in 2009, the first year BusinessWest staged its Difference Makers recognition program, the group of honorees included a relatively new nonprofit devoted to inspiring entrepreneurship and giving startups and early-stage companies a leg up as they sought to develop concepts and bring them to the market.

It was called Valley Venture Mentors, and its mission was relatively simple … give entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs exposure to mentors within the business community and provide programming to accelerate startup initiatives and get them off the ground. And the need was real, because new businesses weren’t coming to the region in large numbers, existing businesses were being merged into other entities at an increasingly alarming rate, and, because of these forces, new sources of jobs would be needed for the decades to come.

VVM, as it was called, was still in its infancy then, but it was already generating momentum and some positive results, enough to earn it the designation Difference Maker.

A dozen or so years later, VVM all but vanished from the landscape. We’re not sure what happened, but it was probably a combination of the pandemic, which robbed it of momentum and the ability to stage in-person meetings, changes in leadership, and other factors that led to dormancy — and a sizable hole in the region’s entrepreneurship ecosystem.

Recognizing the importance of filling this hole, a group led by Paul Silva, one of the early leaders of VVM and an entrepreneur himself who has created several ventures aimed at fostering startups, has launched Innovate413, or what they have nicknamed VVM 2.0 (see related story, page 4).

Silva joked that he was ‘getting the band back together,’ a reference to some of the mentors involved with the original VVM who will be participating with this version as well. But Innovate413 will go a step or two further.

Indeed, fueled by $250,000 in seed money from the Irene E. and George A. Davis Foundation and the MassMutual Foundation, the new nonprofit will seek to link entrepreneurs with mentors, but also catalysts in the form of access to potential customers (employers with problems that need solving) and access to the latest artificial intelligence and product-development technology from groups such as the Center for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (CDS) at the Manning College of Information and Computer Sciences at UMass Amherst.

The broad goal, said Silva, is to provide teach-based startups with what he called “an unfair advantage,” meaning direct access to businesses looking for solutions. This will enable entrepreneurs to problem-solve and develop technology for which there is a recognized need, rather than developing a product or service and hope that a market for it will develop.

It sounds good on paper. Whether Innovate413 will succeed with this mission remains to be seen, but we are encouraged that the band is coming back together and that there is a concerted effort to fill this hole in the entrepreneurship ecosystem.

That’s because the need that was apparent back in 2009, is still painfully evident. The region is not attracting large employers, the pace of mergers and acquisitions is only accelerating, and, while there is a strong wave of entrepreneurship sweeping the region, there remains a need for new tech-based companies that will stay in the 413 and potentially become large sources of jobs.

We hope VVM 2.0 can generate some momentum on this front and become a Difference Maker in its own right.

HCC Celebrates Opening of New Tech Center

The HCC Tech Center, located on the second floor of the HCC Campus Center, is a new space dedicated to providing students with all the technological support they need to be successful. Funding for the Tech Center came from a $250,000 Tech Rise grant HCC received from the Employment and Training Administration, which is part of the U.S. Department of Labor. The money was principally used to buy furniture, computers, and other technology for the center, as well as the hiring of student interns. Alongside Manager Walter Pfau and other IT staff, the Tech Center will be run by a team of student interns who can also offer one-on-one support to their classmates who need assistance with their devices, computer programs, and apps. Previously, students had to go across campus to the first floor of the Frost Building to the IT Help Desk for all their computer needs. The HCC Tech Center is more centrally located, across from Student Engagement, adjoining the HCC Bookstore, and steps away from the cafeteria and food court, where students tend to congregate between classes. In addition to one-on-one tech support, the Tech Center has computer stations for students to use, a classroom for interactive workshops and meetings, and cubicles where other HCC support staff, such as financial aid counselors, can set up shop during special events, like Registration Express and Accepted Students Days.

Yankee Candle Empties Moat for Dakin Humane Society

SPRINGFIELD — Dakin Humane Society was recently the recipient of a donation that totaled more than $11,000 from Yankee Candle Co. The funds came from coins tossed in Yankee Candle Village’s in-store moat, adjacent to its Bavarian Village, by store visitors between 2019 and June 2025. The coins were placed in 48 baskets and were trucked from Yankee Candle Village in South Deerfield to Dakin’s Springfield location by Yankee Candle’s Jeff Palmer, Sales and Operations manager, and Ben Ware, Property and Guest Services manager. Ware’s team handled the process of cleaning the moat and removing the coins. Once at Dakin, it took a team of 40 volunteers nearly four weeks to clean and sort the coins into separate denominations and prepare them for bank deposit. The total value of the coins is still being processed by the bank, which takes additional time, but the preliminary amount indicates a donation of more than $11,000. The donation has been a longstanding tradition of generosity from Yankee Candle that originated in 1994. The late Mike Kittredge, founder of Yankee Candle, was known by many to be an animal lover and decided the moat money should be directed to Dakin to help support its animals, programs, and services. Each year since, the coins in the moat were collected and brought to Dakin until the COVID pandemic halted the process in 2020.

 

DC Station to Open on Oct. 4

NORTHAMPTON — Developer Bruce Volz will open a modern fueling station, called DC Station, at 5 Fulton Ave. in Northampton on Oct. 4, providing 10 fast, level-3 charging ports for electric vehicles (EVs) and a place for drivers to grab a cup of coffee or meal while they wait. The station — named DC for direct current — will also offer a learning hub, EV Base Camp, for those interested in EVs. The grounds will be landscaped with native plants to support local ecosystems and biodiversity. An array of solar panels will cover the charging stations to help defray the cost of the electricity. Volz seeks tenants for DC Station to join in this enterprise — in particular, a coffee house or café to serve customers from early morning to afternoon, and a casual restaurant, such as a pizza or taco house, that would be open until later in the evening. The lot housing DC Station was previously the site for a gas station and used car lot, Pleasant Journey. The Planning Board unanimously approved Volz’s project in June 2024. The facility faces Fulton Street, with access to charging and parking on Conz and Pleasant streets; the level-3 chargers supplied by Lynkwell are expected to be operational on Oct. 4.

NORTHAMPTON — Forbes Library in Northampton celebrated the opening of the new Hess Performance Stage on the library’s west lawn with a grand opening on Sept. 13 with an event featuring the O-Tones playing swing, blues, soul, Motown, Latin, and R&B.

This project is many years in the making and is intended to provide the necessary infrastructure for outdoor programs and events as well as a new community gathering space. The library has a long tradition of outdoor programming, with the first photographed event held in 1918 when an overflow crowd got together on the library grounds to sing patriotic songs in celebration of the end of World War I. The stage was designed by HAI Architects of Northampton and built by Campora Construction Inc. of Ludlow. It has a steel structure and curved roof profile inspired by the arches of the library’s building and featuring colors that also reflect the sandstone and granite of the building. The project was funded by substantial gifts from Marjorie Hess and Rudolph Talaber, for whom the stage is named, along with additional support provided by the Friends of Forbes, the city of Northampton, the Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism, MassDevelopment, AARP Massachusetts, and many individual donors.

YWCA Room Dedication

The YWCA of Western Massachusetts recently held a room dedication ceremony and reception for a beloved former employee, Rosalind Jackson, who retired earlier this year after being with the organization for six years as a direct service advocate for its Domestic Violence Shelter Services. In that role, “Ms. Ros,” as she was affectionately known at the YWCA, worked directly with the women and children residing in the shelter. A plaque hung in the room calls Jackson “a steady voice, a kind heart, and a fierce advocate for all.”

Supporting Workforce Development

The Liberty Bank Foundation recently donated $10,000 to Square One in support of its Learn & Earn Workforce Development initiative.

Participants who need care for their children also receive access to Square One’s nationally accredited early education and care programs. In addition to this grant and others, the program is largely funded through a grant from MassHire Hampden County Workforce Board.

Agenda

Women of Impact Nominations

Through Sept. 4: BusinessWest is now accepting nominations for the eighth annual Women of Impact awards. Nominations for the Women of Impact class of 2025 are due by Thursday, Sept. 4. They can be submitted at businesswest.com/women-of-impact-nominations. In 2018, BusinessWest created the Women of Impact program as a way to honor women in the region who are making an impact and creating positive change. There are many different ways to do this. While nominees can hail from the world of business, they can also emerge from other realms, such as the nonprofit community, public service, law enforcement, education, social work, the mentorship community, a combination of these — in short, the program recognizes inspirational women on any level. For more information, call Natasha Mercado-Santana, Marketing and Events Manager, at (413) 781-8600, ext. 100, or email [email protected].

 

Discounted Big E Tickets

Through Sept. 10: Rocky’s Ace Hardware, one of the country’s largest family-owned Ace Hardware dealers with 50 locations in nine states, announced the return of its Big E ticket presale. Now through Sept. 10, customers can purchase one-day tickets to the Big E at discounted prices at select Rocky’s locations: $16 for adults and $10 for children. Beginning Sept. 11, tickets will still be available at participating stores, but at regular pricing. Participating locations include Agawam, East Longmeadow, Holden, Ludlow, Northborough, Palmer, South Hadley, Springfield, Westfield, and Worcester, as well as Stamford and Vernon, Conn.

 

Instant Issues Luncheon

Sept. 10: The World Affairs Council of Western Massachusetts will present its first Instant Issues lunchtime discussion of the 2025-26 program year with Javier Corrales, Dwight W. Morrow 1895 professor of Political Science and department chair of Political Science at Amherst College. He will present “Autocracy Rising: How Venezuela Transitioned to Authoritarianism” from noon to 1 p.m. at 1350 Main St., ninth floor gallery, in downtown Springfield. Corrales, a frequent World Affairs Council speaker, coined the term ‘autocratic legalism’ in 2015 to explain how Venezuela transitioned to authoritarianism by using the legal system to impose autocracy. Corrales is the author of many publications; his most recent book is Autocracy Rising: How Venezuela Transitioned to Authoritarianism, published in 2022. Admission is $10 for members, $15 for non-members. Lunches can be reserved for $25 for members and $30 for non-members.
