Town Manager Norman Khumalo and Hopkinton Youth and Family Services Director Dawn Alcott are pleased to introduce Sarah Randall as the department’s new social worker/program coordinator. 

Randall began in her role in July. She will be doing case management and providing emotional support services within the community. As the program coordinator, she will also be assisting with coordinating events for the community to educate residents about mental health. 

“I am excited to be in this role and am looking forward to implementing programming to enhance mental health and support Hopkinton’s residents,” Randall said.

Randall was most recently a clinical social worker at AgingWell Adult Day Health Center in Marlborough where she conducted mental status assessments and provided clinical support, collaboratively worked to find necessary resources and care for clients, and facilitated weekly life skills groups. 

She concurrently worked as a pandemic crisis clinician with MassSupport, a crisis counseling program created in 2020 that is funded through a Federal Emergency Management Agency grant and provided by Riverside Community Care. In this role, she assisted residents who called the hotline for support or resources related to COVID-19, worked with community partners to connect residents with services, and conducted coping support groups.
