Staff Profile - Meet Anne!

Picture
Anne grew up in Avon Lake Ohio, but ventured West after high school. She obtained her BA in Psychology from Bradley University in Illinois and a Graduate degree in Women’s Studies from the University of Madison in Wisconsin. After Grad School, Anne returned to Northeast Ohio and wanted to help vulnerable and marginalized communities. She has been part of the EDEN family for two and a half years as a housing locator, working with families. She works with families that are in shelters to assist them in securing safe and affordable housing so they can leave homelessness. Anne stated the biggest challenges are finding units that are large enough for some families, and also unit inspections.

Anne, like all EDEN housing locators, is an HQS certified inspector and looks at units prior to families moving in. She is looking for units that are child-friendly among other safety guidelines. When asked about the biggest reward of her work, Anne stated “Helping people get out of a shelter, and helping families getting their feet in the door of a new home.” When we asked Anne what advice she might have for families facing homelessness, she said “Don’t give up hope! There are people out there that are understanding and want to help.”

This month Anne is transitioning into a new role at EDEN as a community housing agent. In this new role she will recruit, educate and develop relationships with landlords to work with EDEN clients that receive housing assistance.

We appreciate Anne’s commitment to EDEN’s vision of administering safe, decent, affordable housing, which will enable our community’s most vulnerable individuals and families to live with hope and dignity!
