Service Coordination
RESIDENT SERVICES COORDINATORS provide one-on-one guidance and case management to help residents find additional community resources to overcome challenges facing them and their families. • At Washington Dodd in Orange, New Jersey, National Night Out 2014 was a great bonding experience for the whole community. Thanks to local business sponsors, everyone joined together to share delicious, healthy food and watch as the children enjoyed soccer games, jump rope competitions, face painting, and manicures for the girls. • A single mother and her children arrived at Ship’s Cove with only the small amount of luggage they could carry. The staff at this Fall River, Massachusetts property helped the family furnish their apartment and meet their basic needs for food and transportation. They helped them identify service providers for their educational and medical needs, including the mother’s acute surgical need. • Eviction prevention is an integral component of the support our team provides residents. At Bayview Towers in Stamford, Connecticut, five residents were in jeopardy of eviction. The Resident Services Coordinator helped them locate rent assistance, identify social services for food stamps, childcare and donated clothing, and taught them how to eat healthy while maintaining their budgets.
“With the community center so close to home, I always know I have a place to go when I need help.”
