COMMUNITY RESOURCE COORDINATORS

A CONNECTION TO LONG-TERM STABILITY

The Community Resource Coordinator program is our signature strategy for achieving our Bold Goals. Our Community Resource Coordinators provide intensive case management to families, helping them find longer-term solutions to stability like affordable housing, reliable transportation, and workforce development opportunities.

HOW DOES THE PROGRAM WORK?

Community Resource Coordinators (CRCs) are case managers who provide support to families as they work toward self-sufficiency. Some issues CRCs may be able to assist with include: referrals, budgeting and money management, housing, education, transportation, employment, and tax preparation.

We embed Community Resource Coordinators in organizations across the community to serve populations in great need of economic mobility support. Through this model, we are able to meet families where they are on the journeys to becoming self-sufficient.

If you would like to meet with a CRC to get support and you are in one of their service areas, fill out the form below. You will be contacted within 5 business days after form submission.

Please note : CRCs do NOT provide emergency financial assistance. If you are seeking financial assistance for rent, utilities, etc. we encourage you to call or text 2-1-1 or visit sc211.org to see what services might be available in our community to help.
