  • Emergency Housing for Homeless Families

    SOCIAL SERVICES - SOCIAL SERVICES ADDRESSES THE NEEDS OF THE HOMELESS FAMILIES WHO COME TO PEC, WHO OFTEN HAVE ENDURED SEVERE HARDSHIPS SUCH AS EVICTION FROM HOUSING BY FRIENDS OR RELATIVES, JOB LOSS, INTRA-FAMILY VIOLENCE, ILLNESS, PHYSICAL, SEXUAL AND EMOTIONAL TRAUMA, LIMITED EDUCATIONAL ADVANCEMENT, AND HUNGER. MANY ARRIVE AT PEC IN SEARCH OF A SAFE PLACE TO MAKE A FRESH START, WITH NOTHING BUT THE CLOTHES ON THEIR BACKS. OUR EMERGENCY HOUSING RESPONDS TO THE BASIC NEEDS OF THE HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN; SHELTER, FOOD, HEALTHCARE, CLOTHING, AND SAFETY. BEFORE THEY CAN MAKE THE MAJOR CHANGES IN THEIR LIVES THAT WILL LEAD TO LONG-TERM INDEPENDENCE, THESE FAMILIES MUST HAVE SAFE, WARM, SECURE PLACES TO STAY. PROVIDING EMERGENCY HOUSING IS A KEY PART OF WHAT WE DO AT PEC. CASE MANAGERS ARE ASSIGNED TO HOMELESS FAMILIES. CASE MANAGERS WORK CLOSELY WITH MOTHERS AND CHILDREN TO MANAGE THEIR HEALTH CARE NEEDS, TRACK PROGRESS TOWARD FAMILY GOALS, AND MONITOR CHILDREN'S REPORT CARDS, SCHOOL ATTENDANCE, ACADEMIC SUCCESSES, AND DISCIPLINARY PROBLEMS. ON A MONTHLY BASIS, EACH FAMILY WITHIN EMERGENCY SHELTER AND TRANSITIONAL HOUSING IS ASSESSED WITH PEC'S OWN DESIGNED FAMILY ASSESSMENT TOOL.
