The Long Branch Concordance Family
Success Center is proud to announce three free upcoming events for families and individuals
who were affected by Hurricane Sandy. The LBC has teamed up with The Hope
Coalition, Legal Services of New Jersey, and The Community Health Law Project to
offer the following workshop and legal clinics. The
events will be held at Long Branch Concordance Family Success Center located at
St. James’ Church, 300 Broadway in Long Branch. Light snacks and beverages will
be served.
Legal Services of New Jersey staff will be available for a free legal clinic
through their Hurricane
Sandy Legal Assistance Project. Families
and individuals will be able to sit and talk with a representative from Legal
Services staff will be available for a free legal clinic.
The
Affordable Housing Alliance will also be at our August 12th event to
meet with families affected by Sandy. They will help residents work through the complex
reconstruction process by providing individual counseling, group education, and
resources. Individual counseling assessments will review and evaluate each participant’s
ability to move forward with repairing, rebuilding or relocating based on their
individual capacity of committed financial resources and future sustainability.
Educational seminars and workshops will also be provided to assist with the
ongoing need for knowledge.
All are welcome regardless of
financial status. The only requirement is that a family’s or individual’s issue(s)
are a direct or indirect result of Hurricane Sandy. If you have any questions or would like the attend any of the
events please contact Marjorie Bafaty, MSW, RN, Family Support Coordinator at 732.571.1670 ext. 304 or email
