Physician CareConnection Executive Director on Press Conference about Rental Assistance Funding

Physician CareConnection (PCC) Executive Director, Isi Green, was on a virtual press conference with the Mayor of Columbus last Friday, January 29th.

During the press conference, the City of Columbus announced 26.8 million in federal funding designated for rent and utility assistance.

Columbus will set aside $3 million of that for CelebrateOne, which PCC is partners with, to help with housing for at-risk new and expectant mothers. CelebrateOne will distribute the emergency rental assistance funds to community partners who will provide rental and utility assistance to families at high risk of infant mortality and maternal health complications.

You can watch Isi from 9:43 – 13:30 to hear some of the amazing stories in which PCC has used this money in the past to provide assistance to those who need it most.
