Family Strengthening Department
Christamore House understands that many of our neighborhood families are challenged by the affects of living in poverty and nearly all are at risk of becoming homeless. To meet their needs, we provide case management services, and provide emergency food and clothing, infant supplies, utility assistance, and referral services to families in need. We work with dozens of organizations to provide mental health counseling, domestic violence services, health services, and many others. In addition, we provide thousands of dollars in direct emergency assistance to the families served through the Community Emergency Relief Fund. We also receive Homeless Prevention Rapid Re-Housing Program funds, allowing us to work intensively with clients and landlords, and make short-term housing and utility payments to keep families from becoming homeless.
