Weld Information and Referral Service
Catholic Community Services/Northern
Greeley Transitional House
A Woman's Place, Inc.
Weld Information and Referral Service
Weld Information and Referral Service is requesting ESG funds for Essential
Services and Homeless Prevention.
The Homeless Case Management Program will provide case management services which
will include landlord mediation to 99 clients of which 45 clients would be at
risk of becoming homeless and 54 clients would be homeless.
Limited emergency financial assistance to 55 case management clients and/or
clients needing a one time assistance with rent or foreclosure in order to avert
homelessness will also be provided by the 1995 ESG program.
Catholic Community Services/Northern
Catholic Community Services is requesting ESG funds for Operation Costs
associated with the Guadalupe Center and for Essential Services.
Guadalupe Center is a forty bed shelter providing short-term, emergency overnight
services for homeless families, single males and single females. Clients are
provided with a place to sleep, evening and morning meals, hygiene supplies,
shower and laundry facilities, information and referral and family case
management services.
Greeley Transitional House
Greeley Transitional House is requesting ESG funds for Operation Costs, Essential
Services and Homeless Prevention.
Essential Services
The Greeley Transitional House is applying for three support needs within
the area of essential services. Those are food, resident emergency needs
and transportation for client families to and from work.
In the area of food, Greeley Transitional House is requesting $200, to
purchase food for their clients at the Weld Food Bank for a mere 14 cents
per pound. The majority of food for clients is provided by local
contributions. Many families upon arrival are in need of food that
moment and many times these are times when the Food Bank is closed. This
expands our ability to serve the immediate needs of clients and provide
950596
a food pantry on -site for emergency and supplemental needs. Many
families come in the evening and are in need of immediate nourishment.
In the area of resident emergency, many families are in need of help on
a one-time basis for prescriptions, health care, gas, car repairs,
personal products, fees for obtaining documents to complete forms for
government assistance and/or educational fee. This fund would meet those
emergency needs and expedite their process in attaining a base line level
of self-sufficiency.
In the area of transportation, Greeley Transitional House has always been
able to obtain free bus passes from the City of Greeley for their
residents to utilize for their transportation needs, especially to and
from work. However, with the passage of Amendment One, the City of
Greeley is no longer able to fund this project. Alternative funding has
not been located. The absence of transportation is many times a stumbling
block in one being able to attain a base line level of self-sufficiency.
Funding for this project would eliminate a barrier to self-sufficiency for
our client families.
Homeless Prevention
The Greeley Transitional House can do much in 30 - 45 days to alleviate
the immediate crisis, but that does not allow sufficient time to affect
long term change. It is imperative that families have a supportive and
encouraging environment when they leave GTH and move into permanent
housing. Often these families return to the same environment and
fragmented support system which attributed initially to their
homelessness; without intervention in this environment, all the factors
which led to their homelessness are still present and the cycle may very
well begin again. Research supports the view that social supports enhance
the health and well-being of children and women, and the lack of social
supports contributes to many problems including family homelessness
(Bassuk et al., 1990).
The goal of this project is to empower families to attain their maximum
level of self-sufficiency as they move from the Greeley Transitional House
into permanent housing and prevent them from falling into the same cycle
of homelessness again and again. This goal will be accomplished in the
following manner:
1. Facilitate a minimum of 35 adult head of household in life
skills group issues of self esteem, self awareness, stability,
responsibility, budget counseling and other educational topics
related to self-sufficiency;
2. Provide follow-up case management for a minimum of 42 families
completing the initial 30-45 day emergency program. Case
management will involve the establishment of a trusting,
collaborative relationship, information and referral,
psychosocial support and encouragement, assessment of needs,
goal setting and advocacy. Utilize all community agencies and
resources to aid in support of the enrolled family.
950596
A Woman's Place, Inc.
A Woman's Place provides emergency safe housing, food and support services to
women and their children who are homeless as a result of being a victim of
domestic violence. We are the only shelter in Weld County that provides these
services to abused women and their children who are homeless because of domestic
violence. ESG funding will enhance our ability to provide effective domestic
violence related services to the people of Weld County.
A Woman's Place is requesting funds for Operation Costs and Essential Services.
