Hard to believe that we are headed into summer in just a few weeks. We’ve been busy at Coming Home Connection. Our equipment loan program is going strong and it seems we are always experiencing a constant flow of things coming in and things going out.
With the addition of Patti McLaughlin, our new staff person, we have expanded our health navigation services in collaboration with the City and County of Santa Fe, allowing us to serve nearly 125 seniors and low income residents annually. Health navigation links clients with essential health and community services, assisting individuals in overcoming barriers to care.
As always, Barbara is busy scheduling and supporting our caregivers and clients and I’ve been busy grant writing and completing our accounting transition to keep Coming Home Connection on solid footing. Don’t forget, our equipment lending hours are Monday 9am-1pm, Tuesday 11am-1pm and Wednesdays 9am-1pm. We are always on the look out for new caregivers as demand is high, so if you are interested please give Barbara a call.
We have holidays coming up and our office will be closed Monday, May 31 for Memorial Day and Friday, July 2 to observe the 4th of July!
Have a safe and brilliant summer with family and friends. And don’t forget about getting vaccinated. If you haven’t gotten your shot, be sure to sign up. It’s really easy. Just call (505) 913-3080 and schedule your shot today! Self scheduling is available at sfvin.org.
Warmly, JoDee Powers

In April, Coming Home Connection received a $20,000 grant from the Anderson Family Foundation. In order for them to release the funds, I have to match this with another $20,000!! I’ve raised $18,500 toward that goal, but I would love your help in getting the final $1,500. Please donate now to the link below and help us reach our goal by July 15, 2021. As always, we appreciate your support and donations. Plan ahead for year end donations now! Here’s the link to make your donation; https://cominghomeconnection.networkforgood.com/projects/131579-help-us-match-our-20-000-anderson-family-foundation-grant
