Homelessness Prevention
SMH provides groceries and financial assistance to
13,000 individuals and families on the verge of homelessness per year.
Bags of groceries are prepared from our food pantry and we distribute
$20,000 in food in these bags each year. Rent assistance is provided through
a coordinated effort with other area agencies. Furniture and clothing
vouchers are available as our donations allow.
Food Pantry
Our on-site food pantry holds 314 square feet of donated
items. Local supermarkets, churches, synagogues, organizations and individuals
donate food for those in need. We currently rent a 200 square foot storage
space off-site for back-up items. We also have access to items provided
by the Harry Chapin Food Bank.
Crisis Intervention
For those who are not residents, but in need of help
and support, SMH will review their situation and enlist staff or
case managers to assist them. When the crisis is defined and goals
are met, we encourage these individuals and families to take the
steps necessary to avoid ever having to face this type of crisis
again.
