SUPPORTIVE SERVICES


At Micah House, each resident is required to meet with the on-site Advocacy Counselor, who:

  • Assesses each resident's history

  • Helps design an individual goal and action plan for success

  • Monitors the individuals progress, adjusting when necessary

COLLABORATIVE APPROACH


A hallmark of our supportive services program is our collaborative approach. We work closely with other organizations to provide our residents with needed workshops and services including:

  • Health screening and education sessions
  • Cooking classes
  • Computer and paper-based tutoring
  • Legal advice
