Community Action of Laramie County
Through our four programs—Crossroads Healthcare Clinic, Kinship Support Services, Laramie County Head Start, and Self-Sufficiency—lives are being changed and improved every single day.
Intensive Case Management Program.
Our Intensive Case Management Program supports a limited number of qualified individuals and/or families who meet 125% of the federal poverty guidelines. Approved program participants will enter into either a one- or a two-year commitment. Each obligation will receive intensive case management, including but not limited to achieving and/or maintaining housing; enhancement of life skills; addressing individual needs; building social skills and community relations; and developing goals to achieve an improved quality of life.
Transitional Housing.
Transitional Housing
Our transitional housing consists of single-occupancy apartments that are offered to homeless individuals, as well as larger apartments and/or homes to assist low-income families. Both single occupancy and family housing opportunities include case management.
Jonn J. Edmunds Veterans Home/Bridge Housing Program
Our VA Bridge Housing Program is a short-term program (90 days or less) offering case management and temporary housing to low-income veterans. We collaborate with the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs, our local VA Medical Center, and Volunteers of America to obtain the goal of permanent housing for program participants. Prior to acceptance into the program, the participating veteran will have been issued a housing voucher from one of the agencies listed above. While in the program, veterans have the opportunity to work closely with a case manager on matters of employment, budgeting, communication, and everyday life skills.
