Assistance is given and coordinated for situations such as utility disconnection notices, locating childcare or employment, accessing healthcare or transportation, or finding housing, food, clothing, hygiene, and other basic necessities. We provide advice on how to better manage a person's resources and improve their personal circumstances. Whether it is a moment of crisis, a need for direction, or long-term education and development, we are here to serve those in need in our community and region.
We work in conjunction with regional agencies, Park View’s Life Skills Institute and Food for Families programs to provide not only immediate assistance but also long-term education and stabilization to those facing the impacts of poverty. In addition, having a branch office of the Community Access Network in our building makes it convenient to address certain health issues.
