As a Disaster Case Manager I am currently independently managing two privately funded Emergency Housing and Shelter prevention budgets. My main focus was to educate and best inform clients of the neighborhood disaster related resources available to them by distributing READY NY materials to help promote personal and communal resiliency. While assisting in managing several emergency budgets to help keep families in their homes, I also provided preparedness training's for staff within the company, children and adults of the Lower East Side. Working closely with organizations such as The American Red Cross, Salvation Army, Food Bank, Department of Housing and Preservation, Legal Aid, And Human Resources Administration I was able to secure housing and prevent shelter entry.
