Resident Services
We provide dynamic services to enhance the lives of the families, seniors, and people with special needs who live in our communities.
During the current health crisis, Linc is only hosting the most crucial programs, including food bank distribution and resource referrals. To support this vital work, please volunteer or give to Neighbors Care COVID-19 Relief.
Our Programs
Typically, our programs are offered at no cost right where residents live — which uniquely positions our resident services team to create positive outcomes and opportunities for those we serve. Activities include: after-school and summer programs for youth, health classes, job skills support, financial empowerment workshops, community-building events, and outings that help residents stay connected to their communities. Linc works to make our communities a place where residents gain housing stability and support toward economic mobility.
Resident services coordinators are assigned directly to communities to build relationships with residents, assess needs, provide resources, and facilitate services. We partner with volunteers, local organizations and businesses, and charitable foundations to help build on our residents’ strengths and create stronger communities overall.
