Our response during the COVID-19 pandemic
Our office has been closed for in-person services. Our SEES case managers continue to serve our clients remotely. In March 2020, a hotline was established in which clients could call and receive a referral for our services or other community resources. SEES staff has played a key role in ensuring Spanish-speaking clients were connected to the appropriate resources throughout the pandemic.
