Responsibilities:
The Director is responsible for the equitable and efficient administration of social
services within the community. The Director initiates action to help clients to
receive essential aid through other agencies or individuals and becoming self-supporting.
Services Provided:
We help people in emergency situations - no monetary resources - food - prescriptions
- utilities - no living quarters. As an advocate for people who cannot function
in various areas, the Director interacts with agencies, physicians, and churches
on behalf of our clients. We assist in filing applications, contact and assist families
in a myriad of ways. In addition, we run holiday programs in coordination with the
fire department, business community, services organizations, churches, and the community
at large. These programs provide gifts, clothing, and food gift certificates for
the needy, the unemployed, underemployed, disabled, and elderly. We have a good
will fund which is subsidized solely through contributions and provides funds for
people in need. We also administer a food clothing, furniture, and household goods
program. All programs are funded by donations.
