CONNECTION CENTERS - a Winning Partnership Because food banks are one of the first places people go for help when they are in need We have Outreach Specialists available during most FISH Food Bank hours. Connection Centers offer a single point of entry for dozens of community resources, government subsidies, medical and housing options, foreclosure prevention, financial education and credit counseling. To better address long-term needs of its clients we joined forces with FISH Food Banks and developed Connection Centers at FISH's busiest food bank locations across Pierce County. In the past two years, FISH Food Banks of Pierce County has seen a 50% increase in visitors. Most food bank clients need additional resources to move toward self-sufficiency. Connection Centers give us this opportunity. We see people with one immediate need but we work with them and provide an array of resources to help meet needs for the long term and help guide clients towards independent and sustainable living.
