Mobile Safety-Net Team Vision

The three teams that make up the Mobile Safety-Net Team will travel throughout Erie and Niagara Counties to assist with the changes in lifestyle people are experiencing. The program's objective is to provide support and information in key needs areas including Food, Finance/Legal Assistance, Employment, Health Insurance, Social Services and Crisis Services. This will be done by completing community needs assessments, creating inventories of services, determining organizations’ ability to respond to an increase in demand for services and holding Community Resource Events at central locations in each community. 

These events will serve as week-long one stop shops to assist and inform individuals and families who require human services support. 

This initiative is designed to supplement existing programs and better coordinate efforts and services to address the elevated needs resulting from the nation's economic decline.
