AllOne Charities granted Catholic Social Services $10,000 to launch Primary Care Pathfinders, a CSS pilot program that matches homeless clients one-on-one with a navigator whose role is to ensure that important service connections within the community are made and urgently needed medical treatment is received.To date, CSS has received four grants totaling $202,500 from local foundations in support of this new program, which officially launched January 2019. Its goals are to help 60 homeless persons per year achieve significant health and housing outcomes while testing the value of intensive health-focused case management in the shelter system.
