A Focused Community Strategy

UWCC releases strategic priority areas.

Basic needs such as food, childcare, housing and financial assistance are a requirement before someone can take steps towards planning ahead. UWCC has prioritized these basic needs through United at Work, Season of Sharing and VITA, as well as through providing grant funding to local programs that offer this type of support for Charlotte County residents.

UWCC will continue to prioritize basic needs in our community.

Executive Director, Angie Matthiessen was asked to be on a panel regarding Disaster Preparedness Recovery. There was a lot of great information shared on unexpected disasters as well as man-made disasters.
