This group is already helping those unsheltered navigate to permanent housing. Cannot wait to see all they will do.

Licking County Foundation funds help five organizations hire people who can help clients navigate government and social service systems to address barriers to permanent housing, such as legal, medical and mental health issues, and to find homes.

LCCH would like to introduce, Kayla Cunningham!

Kayla joined the Licking County Coalition for Housing team as our new Community Navigator!

In this important role, Kayla will collaborate with organizations and community partners across Licking County to advocate for people experiencing homelessness and help connect them with the services, resources, and support they need.

This work is about building bridges—between people and resources, between organizations and one another, and ultimately between individuals experiencing homelessness and a path toward home.

The Community Navigator initiative was made possible through a generous grant from the Licking County Foundation. We are deeply grateful to the Foundation and to the entire community whose support makes this critical work possible.

Learn more about the Community Navigator initiative and how our community can get involved at https://lickingcountyismyhome.com/.
