Housing Counseling
CDBH offered previously housing counseling in numerous locations through out several counties, we have recently started offering these again only on a long term basis until we are HUD certified, any others we are referring to a HUD certified organization. This is fairly new to me I was recently certified as a housing counselor in June and I am still learning. Financial Literacy
CDBH offers free financial literacy classes which consists of 8 modules/classes that are presented by the FDIC Money Smart Program. We offer these classes at several locations including CDBH, Inc. office, Belhaven Senior Center, and the Pantego Panelization Plant workers. Previously the classes were offered to the students at the Northside High School. We have been working on a program for the High School and the Elem. School—this is still in progress. Matter of Balance
CDBH along with the Belhaven Senior Center is offering to the elderly an 8 week program A Matter of Balance, which gets seniors to exercise that normally do not to help prevent falls in the elderly. Senior Health Insurance Program
CDBH offers counseling to seniors regarding Medicare Insurance. We help them understand their insurance and direct them to the correct organization for any concerns. Job Creation
We will provide employment opportunities with competitive wages and associated support services to disadvantaged individuals, resulting in less government assistance, more economic independence, and more entrepreneurial opportunities.We will create a minimum of 112 new jobs with at least 60% of the staff coming from TANF/Work- First, low-income, unemployed, single female headed households, and other disadvantaged populations.
We realize that many individuals and families will be unable to participate in the program without access to pertinent secondary services, so we will also provide child care, health benefits, and life skills learning opportunities to all employees.
