Navigating Crisis with Care: How A.R.C. Helped Dawn Secure Housing, Employment, and Support for Her Family

Dawn sought assistance in securing housing for her 73-year-old father, who requires care. With her husband also disabled, she was unable to manage both caregiving responsibilities. During the assessment, it was revealed that their rent had increased to $2,000 per month, while their only income—her husband's Railroad retirement—was $1,200, leaving them financially strained.

At the time of her visit, Dawn was unemployed but had an upcoming job interview. Two weeks later, she confirmed she was hired for a full-time position paying $16/hour, which would significantly improve their financial situation and allow them to relocate to a more affordable unit.

A.R.C. contacted Valley Income Properties to identify housing options. They offered a two-bedroom, ground-floor unit for $1,245/month plus utilities—an attainable solution for the family.

Services Provided:

  • Housing Placement: Support in locating care housing for Dawn’s elderly father
  •  Insurance Enrollment: ALTCS application submitted for long-term care coverage
  • Employment Referral: Assistance leading to successful job placement
  • Housing Search: Coordinated relocation to affordable two-bedroom unit for Dawn and her husband

Outcome: The family is now on a path toward financial stability and appropriate care support.
