What If We Had 50 Percent Increase In Funding?
IHN would be able to improve our Client-Follow-up Services. This resource would continue to provide support services to families for at least six months after they move into their own apartment to assure their success in self-sufficient living. IHN would also initiate a complete Mentoring Program where volunteers and staff would work on an even longer term basis to provide life skills and training experiences that reinforce the families in their progress towards stability, independence and growth as effective members of the El Paso County community.
