Many clients have more than one issue contributing to problems with housing. They need affordable housing. They also may need assistance with other areas. These areas may include literacy, education and training, budget and money management skills, social skills, health and nutrition, parenting, and childcare.
ACHR offers clients a range of services to meet those needs. Services in Lee County include Early Head Start, Head Start, wraparound childcare, energy assistance, weatherization, and affordable housing. The Housing Counselor can help clients access these resources.
