Increased Outreach Efforts
Since the pandemic’s start, there has been a 400% increase in need for outreach services from newly impacted populations. This includes those experiencing economic hardship and situational poverty due to unemployment, underemployment, reduced hours, and/or poor health due to COVID-19.
We are working hard to mitigate this crisis and are fully committed to improving Morris County’s overall housing, health, and economic outcomes.
Through enhanced outreach efforts, we have…
Addressed raised risks of housing instability within our community through eviction prevention, mental health, domestic violence, and housing stabilization services
Made over 5,000 face-to-face contacts & provided over 1,500 services/referrals through Navigating Hope mobile outreach unit
Served more than 1,600 clients through Our Promise Drop-in Center
