We provide support to families and staff by answering questions about housing, medical resources, counseling and recreation. School supplies and Winter Warm Wear are often provided to students directly through the schools — as school district staff is acutely aware of the needs in their schools. Our services are available year round and on days when other agencies are closed.
ICA is our sister agency. They provide us with Emergency Food Bags, financial assistance applications, and bus tokens for their customers. We serve as a meeting location for clients who cannot travel to their Minnetonka location. We are also a food donation site for the foodshelf.
We send residents who need energy assistance to Community Action Partnership's site and homeowners with mortgage difficulties to their Mortgage Foreclosure Program. They provide financial counseling with Lutheran Social Services and eligibility screening for the Food Support program. We also provide meeting space for their First Time Home Buyers program.
AccountAbility Minnesota provides tax preparation services to our clients. In return we provide the space and help connect them with individuals and families that need their services.
Hopkins and Minnetonka city staff regularly refer their residents to us. We’ve received referrals from city offices, housing inspectors, public housing staff and professional staff from both cities.
