We invite you to visit the Rita De Cascia Community to learn about the program and clients we serve. You will have the opportunity to hear from the program director about how we are effectively improving the lives of our clients and positively touching our communities through measurable outcomes. We will discuss the opportunities for volunteer engagement at Rita De Cascia and answer any questions you may have as you consider getting involved as a volunteer.
Since 1984, Rita da Cascia Community has been a unique program in that it specializes in intensive, coordinated case management services to women and children impacted by chronic illness and homelessness. The program is designed to ensure that women and children are connected to vital medical, financial, legal and psychiatric services. Families are offered stability and socialization through:
* Intensive medical case management
* Care coordination
* Wellness support
* Activities
Additionally, Rita da Cascia operates the nine-unit program called Hazel Betsey Community.
Rita da Cascia is a designated Special Project of National Significance and serves as a major link in the Centers of Excellence and Family Service Network collaboration continuum of care through education, counseling and treatment coordination.
