“In response to the coronavirus epidemic, svd distributed nearly 1,400 health kits which included multiple masks, sanitizer, alcohol wipes, thermometers, and resource information. In partnership with other neighborhood organizations, svd staff and volunteers personally reached out to over 5,000 households to identify and address pressing medical, food- security, and housing-security needs. Svd launched the "community steward" program in november 2019. Over 30 neighborhood residents received leadership training, racial equity training, and trauma-responsive care education to provide them the tools they need to provide support to their neighbors and refer them to svd and other human-service organizations. The stewards wrote mini grants to create a postcard campaign where postcards were decorated with drawings and positive messages and sent to slavic village residents, led a socially distanced chalk fest, created a virtual talk show with trivia and prizes, held a socially distanced healthy food tasting, and kept the "iron ward music festival" going with covid-19 protocols in place. Housing stability programs piloted by svd staff were adopted by the city of cleveland in november 2019. The "healthy homes initiative" provides housing stability resources to homeowners and renters in the form of direct grants, technical assistance to address home repairs, referrals to repair programs such as the city's paint program, and other help to maintain safe and healthy homes. 540 households were assisted between november 2019 and june 2020.”
