Review for Twin Cities Community Voice Mail, St. Paul, MN, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

When TCCVM served its 1st client in 1994, the expectation was that it would enroll 20 community agencies and programs to link low-income individuals and familiesto the voice mail service. Organizers hoped to help 500 users communicate with prospective landlords and employers, that year. Those goals were met in just 5 months, indicating how needed this basic service was. The numbers, and the positive outcomes, have continued to grow. In 15 years, TCCVM's no-fee approach has made communications accessible and linked folks to services statewide. It was demonstrated that partnerships between agencies and clients can help clients achieve their goals.
