Specialized Case and Care Management (SCCM)
SCCM program provides intensive case and care management services to chronically homeless individuals.
Case managers work with people and families experiencing homelessness and those who are at risk of homelessness. Case managers identify households of greatest risk and determine the type of support needed to prevent homelessness. They also help clients develop independent living skills, provide support with treatment, and serve as the point of contact between clients and people in their social and professional support systems.
The goal is to find housing for the individuals involved in the program, as well as connecting with outside providers and resources.
