> Social Services @ the Library
The library is partnering with several service organizations to make it easier for people to access their services in person. All organizations are accepting "walk-ins," subject to availability. Currently, the following organizations are holding "office hours" in the Library:
Shelter From The Storm: Tuesdays, 9:00-2:00pm, walk-in
Shelter From The Storm is providing multifaceted employment assistance for people who live within Dane County but outside of Madison, and who earn 80% or less than the area median household income. Click here for more information.
Tenant Resource Center: Fridays by appointment
TRC staff are providing application assistance to tenants applying for Dane CORE emergency rental assistance.
Schedule an appointment using the online scheduler at https://core.tenantresourcecenter.org/application_assistance.
Project Recovery:
Project Recovery's pandemic response team has been de-activated. However, they have compiled a list of resources and services that may provide similar assistance. Please call the library's Information Desk for more information.
