KEY POINTS

  • Care coordinators are the first touchpoint for supporting residents at Front Porch by meeting regularly, acting as a sounding board, providing access to resources, and building relationships that encourage long-term growth.
  • Being a care coordinator can be a heavy role, but it is sustained by taking advantage of counseling, asking for help, prioritizing physical health, and finding energy by abiding in Christ.
  • Markis and Eyleen are deeply grateful for the ways God has provided for Front Porch these past two years and they have seen constant evidence that he is continuing to transform the lives of both staff and residents through this work.
