Our case managers help participants develop life skills, access education, health care and financial benefits, as well as liaise with housing and other support services. To achieve these goals, participants and case managers work together to develop a service plan and crisis plan, and identify what we need to do to provide the necessary support. We may also refer participants to other services offered by St. Stephen's, or to other organizations.
