After a successful Healthy Housing Initiative, we were invited back to build the Community Advocate Program. Though a community engagement and research process we created a framework for a sustainable and replicable Community Advocate Program.

The St. James Advocate Program trains community members to connect neighbors, family members, and friends to critical resources, information and opportunities. The advocates play a critical role in connecting residents who are new to the community or have limited English language skills to information and resources. This is a Partnership Art project, funded by ArtPlace America.
