Community Resource Navigator

An experienced Community Resource Navigator (CRN) will be on-site to guide you through the process of meeting your basic financial needs and building supportive social connections.


The Community Resource Navigator will help families and individuals to meet their immediate needs, identify strengths and potential areas for improvement (e.g., financial stability, employment, education, mental health), set obtainable goals, and connect with existing community resources.  Additionally, the CRN will help patrons to navigate existing systems and overcome common barriers to service attainment and on-going self-sufficiency. 

Specifically, the Community Resource Navigator will help clients with:

  • Emergency food and clothing
  • Job searches
  • Resume assistance
  • Limited financial assistance for emergency needs
  • Connections with other social service agencies
  • Addressing needs related to:
    • Mental health
    • Substance abuse
    • Domestic violence
    • Homelessness
    • Childcare

Sponsored by The Partnership for Strong Families and The Children's Trust of Alachua County.
