Case Management
What can a HUD service coordinator do for you?

 

Much like a case manager, a U.S. Housing & Urban Development (HUD) service coordinator work on behalf of individual clients by assisting with government forms and program opportunities.

 

A HUD service coordinator will help with:

* The annual Medicaid re-application.
* The HUD subsidy recertification.
* Enrollment in the Kansas Low Income Energy Assistance Program, to get help with utility bills.
* Social Security Disability Assessments
* As well as other forms necessary for assistance, such as Project Deserve.

 

The CPRF Timbers HUD service coordinator will also:

* Refer new applicants to the director of admissions for an application.
* Meet with new residents to provide helpful phone numbers and get emergency information.
* Distribute commodities.
* Establish plans with residents to reach personal goals.
* Coordinate with the Independent Living Resource Center counselor to solve problems related to implementing planned health care.
* Help schedule counseling or therapy, if needed; and, if requested, accompany the resident for the first visit.
* Accompany residents, if requested, to any court appearance when a resident is involved with either the criminal or civil judicial system.
* Accompany residents to the hospital under certain circumstances.
* Provide monthly training sessions for the residents on topics that enhance the quality of life at the Timbers.
* Provide staff support for the Timbers Human Service Council.
* Assist residents in linking with local agencies for service and/or vocational needs.
* Be an advocate for Timber residents.
* Assist the residents in registering to vote.
