Project Homeless Connect 2011

Kristen Jacoby, Chief Professional Officer at United Way of Greater Waterbury, and Michael Jarjura, Waterbury Mayor, took a few minutes to speak about the initiatives behind Project Homeless Connect.

Project Homeless Connect is a one-day, one-stop, community-wide event designed to deliver care and services to those currently experiencing or near homelessness in the Waterbury community. This effort to end homelessness is made possible by a partnership of citizens, health care, business, civic and neighborhood leaders uniting with the Waterbury Continuum of Care, making this a very beneficial day for homeless individuals and families seeking resources. Services offered include housing information, medical treatment, dental cleanings, haircuts, educational resources, legal, credit and employment counseling, veteran's services, and much more.
