CASE MANAGEMENT
-
For some who face the risk of homelessness or food insecurity, they have experienced several challenges in life that have caused their current crisis. Case managers work one on one with individuals or families to overcome the challenges they are facing and move towards stability. Case managers assess the needs of each individual or family and, where appropriate, they arrange for delivery and access to a range of programs and services in our community. Anyone who comes to Greensboro Urban Ministry for services can request to be seen by a case manager for additional help.

SPIRITUAL CARE & CONNECTION

If you are going through a tough time in life, it can be very helpful to have someone to talk to.

This care is only offered if requested and all conversations are entirely confidential. If you would like to have someone listen and pray with you, simply request to meet with someone from the program when you come to Greensboro Urban Ministry. You can also call Tyra Clymer, Director of Spiritual Care and Connection at (336) 271-5959 ext. 343.
