On December 15th, 2016, Beth Phillips and Michele Burt came in to speak at the last networking meeting of the year at our center. They informed us of their involvement in Medicaid’s Access to Care medical transportation program, and are returning to the networking meeting on Thursday, January 12th, from 11:30 to 12:30 to speak again, and address the network of social service providers. Yellow Cab will be making a donation of 1,000 drawstring bags! Thank you, Beth, Michele, and Yellow Cab! Happy Holidays!

This Tuesday, December 3rd, is Giving Tuesday. Giving Tuesday is a global generosity campaign taking place the Tuesday following Thanksgiving. This year, please consider donating to The Kearney Center. Your donations help us provide meaningful resources to community members living in poverty. Without the generous contributions of our community we would not be able to provide support and a safe-space to those experiencing homelessness. 

One client was in the shelter for 10 ½ months long. He came with no sense of direction, no income, criminal record and lack of motivation. The Case Manager and client filled out for a dozen of job applications until he finally landed a job at a fast-food chain. The Case Manager then showed the client how to make a daily budget so he could save some money for future housing. By the client's 6th month of being at the shelter he had saved some money and had the drive to want to obtain a second job. The Case manager and client begun his housing search; he was devastated because he was being denied to a lot of apartment complexes due to his criminal record, however, after 6 long months of worrying and disappointment, he finally landed a place.
