Second Heart Homes has received a $15,000 Capacity Building Grant from the Community Foundation of Sarasota County to strengthen the organization’s ability to track and evaluate the progress of residents who have experienced homelessness and live with mental illness. Funding for this grant was made possible by the Zella I. and Junius F. Allen Fund. The grant will fund new case management software, replacing much of the manual documentation and data collection Second Heart Homes currently relies on. The new system will allow staff to more efficiently track residents’ housing stability, participation in case management and progress toward individualized goals.
