What We Do
-
Conduct individualized, comprehensive, culturally competent assessments to effectively address and determine solutions for Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) such as food insecurity, unsafe housing, illiteracy, poverty, transportation challenges, and barriers to healthcare access.
-
Serve as case managers to connect people to resources necessary to improve and sustain their quality of life: housing, food, medical care, education, and employment.
-
Advocate for equity and justice by providing guidance and resources for underserved individuals in legal and civil matters.
-
Provide education to public and private organizations on cultural competence, diversity, and equity, and overcoming cultural and language barriers (as needed).
-
Act as a bridge between school systems and students, and their parents and/or families, to enhance engagement, increase understanding, and promote social and academic success.
-
Provide financial and academic support to assist minority men and women preparing to enter the fields of Law Enforcement and Nursing.
Investing in people, one relationship
at a time...
We meet people where they are and strive to care for their most critical needs in that moment...
Then, by employing Community Navigators who function in a role similar to case managers, we provide meaningful, culturally competent assessments to identify wrap-around services and support necessary to help individuals and/or families prosper. Led by experts in the areas of government, health care, the criminal justice system and legal services, emphasis is placed on securing food and safe housing, access to medical care and essential legal services, and ultimately the achievement of education and gainful employment.
