Mission: Odessa links provides our community with access to resources and follow up care, together with local organizations.
Programs: Project hope is a transitional self-sufficiency program, that provides residential stability and opportunities for homeless clients to access supportive services while overcoming homelessness. Client outcomes are measured through milestones within threee main program goals and success is dependent on individual service plans and client defined goals of personal excellence. The organization provided housing assistance for 18 families, including 18 adults and 49 children, during this fiscal year. These families accomplished goals inluding the ability to obtain and remain in permanent housing, an increase in skills and income and achieving greater self-determination.
through the referral plus program, odessa links was able to assist 5,580 households access to service agencies, churches, government agencies, community action groups, and volunteers to meet their needs along with follow-up care to ensure client needs were met. Odessa links was also able to become soar certified to navigate individuals applying for disability through the process. With odessa links being an entry point for many diverse needs we are able to work with the community to address gaps in services or unmet needs and strategically develop effective interventions to assist the most vulnerable and underserved.
