the Emergency Solutions Grant, Tenant-based Rental assistance program and the Community Services Block Grant that MHC manages. She also serves as the secretary for the MHC Board.

out of poverty and change the trajectory of their children’s lives into a
better future. Helping families change their lives is very important to her.
She has always enjoyed helping others, and has been involved with other
community outreach programs  for several years, one in particular, accepts furniture from people who no longer need it and give it to people who need furniture but can’t afford it.
