On the 50th anniversary of Community Access, Director of Housing Erica Engleton shares from her experience working at the organization.
“I think when I was working one-on-one with my program participants, those were my greatest accomplishments. Whether it was helping someone get approved for Social Security, helping them get approved for half-fair Metro Card, moving them into supportive housing. I had one tenant who was on the wait list for a really long time and we finally got her into one of our newer buildings and seeing the joy on their faces that this is theirs because when they're in TAP, it was shared, versus when they moved into supportive housing, they were able to have their own apartment. And for some people this was the first time they've ever had their own apartment and it's really a moving moment. I would also say when I moved into supportive housing, working with people to get employment, it's not something that comes up often, but when you're able to have that one tenant that comes down that says, Hey, I got the job, and they love doing what they're doing, it's amazing feeling.”
