At Illumination Foundation, we assess every individual person to identify needs and provide immediate relief when necessary, followed by the care that combines housing, case management, medical care, mental health, and workforce services to decrease community dependency. We offer a low-entry threshold for the most vulnerable members of our community, with a focus on keeping families together and helping those with significant and/or chronic health conditions.
