We believe that addressing food insecurity is just the first step in a comprehensive approach to breaking the cycle of poverty.
Our journey began with providing fresh groceries to those in need, but we quickly realized that to create lasting change, we needed to go beyond food. This realization led to the development of our Wraparound Services—programs designed to tackle the root causes of poverty and empower our clients to achieve long-term self-sufficiency.
Understanding Wraparound Services
Wraparound Services at The Just One Project are holistic, client-centered support programs that provide more than just immediate relief. These services include housing assistance, self-development workshops, rapid rehousing, and more. By offering a broad spectrum of support, we aim to address the complex and interconnected challenges that our clients face, helping them build a solid foundation for a brighter future.
The Core Components of Wraparound Services
- Housing and Supportive Services:
- Finding stable housing is a critical first step toward self-sufficiency. Our housing assistance program helps clients secure safe and affordable housing and provides essential resources to reduce the risk of clients returning to homelessness. We focus on offering the support needed to maintain stable housing, ensuring a more secure future for our clients.
- Self-Development Workshops:
- We offer free English proficiency and financial literacy classes for adults, aimed at empowering our community with the skills needed for personal and professional growth. These classes are designed to inspire engaged living and drive positive changes in the lives of our clients.
- Rapid Rehousing:
- The Rapid Rehousing program helps unhoused individuals and families transition into stable, permanent housing. This service is a critical step in moving clients from crisis to stability, giving them a safe place to rebuild their lives.
- Case Management:
- Each client’s journey is unique, and our case managers work closely with them to develop personalized plans that address their specific needs. By providing ongoing support and guidance, our case managers help clients navigate the challenges they face and stay on track toward their goals.
