Jessica's UCCAM Success Story

Jessica reached out to UCCAM seeking assistance with her rent. Jessica is a massage therapist and due to COVID-19, she was out of work. Her boyfriend who is an electrician was also unable to go into clients' homes due to COVID-19.

Union County Crisis Assistance Ministry was able to assist them with their rent. Now, both Jessica and her boyfriend have been able to return to work. UCCAM was able to give them a hand up in their time of need and help them maintain stable housing.

The Clark's UCCAM Success Story

The Clark family came to UCCAM for assistance with their water bill. While Mrs. Clark was still employed the family was experiencing financial difficulties due to COVID-19. Mr. Clark worked two jobs, one of which was being a full-time real estate agent.

The family experienced a loss of income when home sales halted and Mr. Clark was unable to work in real estate. With help from UCCAM, the Clark family was able to keep their utilities on and get through their financial crisis.
