OUR APPROACH

Our Benefits Center Team implements bespoke client management for families, individuals, and seniors.

Poverty is the intersection of multiple challenges – which in combination become impossibly overwhelming. Each family, and every person, living in poverty has unique and challenging circumstances.

The Team has established a ‘Concierge Service’ approach navigating our clients through the complex maze of benefits and services.

HEALTH CARE

Navigating health insurance is complicated. For seniors, it is made even more challenging due to limited funds, access, and in many cases, mobility.
