The ERAP (Emergency Rental Assistance Program) Volunteer works directly with people seeking assistance: interviews them about their needs, reviews their application for funding, and enters their applications into the online database. Volunteers also talk with people to identify and address case management goals, including participating in other SEFC programs: Family-to-Family Mentoring program and the Financial Stability Network.

Help us celebrate Christmas with these volunteer activities!
