 More detail about R3SM

 

 

 

R3SM identifies unmet needs and resources of individuals through a case assessment survey as a part of the casework management process and meet those needs through collaborative efforts. We support efforts to repair and rebuild homes and lives beginning with the most vulnerable first. In addition we attend to the spiritual and emotional needs of adults and children and provide referrals. We advocate, through referral, for accessible housing, schools, medical resources and employment for all individuals, including those with special needs/disabilities.  We serve as coordination point/clearinghouse for recovery funds, resources, and volunteer labor in damage assessment, casework management and rebuilding.
