Three Households Settle into their Homes at Saint Francis Villa!
After 5-months of assistance, PCDC was able to successfully find homes for 3 senior households at Saint Francis Villa senior apartment in Kensington area, Philadelphia. These seniors signed their leases on June 15th and are moving into their new homes.
In January 2016, PCDC received information about this new senior housing from Catholic Human Services and Presby’s Inspired Life, and immediately hosted an information workshop about this new opportunity. On February 8th, PCDC Program Manager Ping Ho Lee and Housing Counselor Wendy Lee went to the application site to help 6 clients complete their applications. In April, PCDC assisted the 3 remaining qualified clients with their interview processes. And finally in June, these 3 households signed their lease and claimed an apartment as their home. We will feature their stories in the upcoming newsletter articles.
