We provide crisis intervention and hardship services for struggling, low-income children, families, elderly, disabled, veterans and local neighbors. We offer conflict resolution, basic needs distributions, and utility assistance outreach.
CERA (Community Energy Relief Assistance), formerly our Emergency and Energy Relief Assistance project (EERA), developed during COVID-19 and expanded due to its high demand. Funding for the EERA was provided by a Small and Mighty grant from The Pittsburgh Foundation.
