Emergency Services

When a low-income mom contacts G.E.M.S. she is interviewed and assessed.  We create a plan to address the most important need that must be met.  We network with other charities and organizatons to help our families find housing, nutrition, emergency services they may need.  Families get care packages, with food and personal hygiene items.  Assistance is available to access resources and othe services beyond our scope of assistance.
