Sally English guest speaker at the Forum House Sally English (left) was the guest speaker on Wednesday at a breakfast at the Forum House on Broad St. She was joined by Gladys Masso (center) and Sue Smith (right). Forum House (a program of Viability Inc.) is an employ- ment and recovery center that serves people with mental health conditions in the greater Westfield area. The program operates under the principles of psychiatric rehabilitation and focuses on identifying and developing the skills and interests of the people served. The focus of the clubhouse is on empowerment through work; the clubhouse is run by staff and members together and members are involved in all aspects of the clubs business, from running the food pantry, doing the landscaping, and billing to representing Forum at community events. Forum House has lunch served daily with a cost of only $1.50 and all meals are made from scratch by members and staff. A main focus of Forum House’s services is supporting people in returning to work. We offer various forms of sup- ported employment that allow people with mental illness to utilize their skills, build confidence, and become active members of their community. Forum House has approxi- mately 34% of their members working in the community and serves approximately 190 people annually. Forum House is primarily funded by the Department of Mental Health, but receives a generous donation from the Glasgow Lands Scottish Festival. Clubhouses have been proven to help reduce hospitalization and increase community participation for people with mental illness. 16 people in the Westfield area who were formerly homeless in navigating existing housing services as well as dealing with Forum House also has a housing program which supports maintaining housing. They provide support to members in issues that may threaten their tenancy.

A spokesman for the agency said via email the Secret Service is aware of Fonda’s tweets but “as a matter of practice” would have no additional comment. Donald Trump Jr., meanwhile, did some tweeting of his own, addressing Fonda: “You’re clearly a sick individual” who behaved “like a bully and a coward.” Trump Jr. called on Sony Pictures Classics to stop the release of its film “Boundaries,” in which Fonda has a small role. The company condemned Fonda’s tweets as “abhorrent” but said the film would be released as planned.

The only blemish on the Bombers’ 2018 season is a 3-1 loss to Needham on May 21, but that black mark can easily (well maybe not that easily) be erased. The two teams will meet again Thursday with much more at stake when the Westfield Bombers (22-1) and Needham Rockets (25-1) collide in the state final at Worcester State at 7 p.m. Needham swept through the southern division bracket as the second seed with three straight 3-0 wins, including a sweeping victory over unbeaten, top-seeded Taunton in the title game. The Rockets went on to topple Central Mass champ Natick, also its region’s No. 1 seed, 3-1. “Sometimes the sweep doesn’t always tell the story – sets The defending Division 1 boys volleyball state champion can go either way – but any time you’re going through the Westfield Bombers have come together as one for another tournament (with sweeps) it is especially impressive,” title run.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Don’t push so hard to achieve your goals. You will be able to see the big picture. Confusion surrounds conversations and meet- ings.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You could avoid a problem by being more direct. A loved one touches you emotion- ally through a statement or gift. You have a lot on your mind to think about and consider. How you feel emotionally about other situations could determine your reaction. Tonight: Not to be found. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH A meeting and/or a group of friends support you even if they don’t agree with you. They let you know where they are coming from and why. Anger could erupt at any given moment, causing you to change direction. Confusion occurs from out of the blue. Tonight: ANDY CAPP Mahoney, Goldsmith and Garnett Make plans. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH You could be dealing with a lot of pressure that you would prefer to avoid. Indulge in a stress-buster. Squeeze in some exercise.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Allow greater understanding to Cryptoquip come forward. Your way of thinking could use some reviving. Try to eliminate a blind spot or break past a barrier.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You have a way about you that intrigues a friend or loved one. Your way of thinking adds a new dimension to the brain- storming process. Make plans with this person without making a commitment beyond tonight. Set aside some time for yourself. Tonight: Dinner for two.
