The mission of the MCMC is to deliver high quality disaster case management services to clients who meet eligibility criteria by focusing on the case management processes of assessment, planning, advocacy, linking and monitoring. To accomplish this mission, the MCMC has assembled a family of affiliate organizations who are working in concert with one another and the clients that they serve.

Neighborhood Home Program Print E-mail

MCMC is excited to participate in the recently launched Neighborhood Home Program that is being administered by MDA. This project has given us the ability to solidify our organization as a stand-alone non-profit project management entity as well as the opportunity to continue our work with affiliate partners serving clients within the state. Our goals for the new MCMC are to continue to build upon our work in supporting, and providing, human service activities that seek to build stronger individuals, families and communities. We are working to finalize our contractual obligations for the new project, while we simultaneously complete our work on the groundbreaking FEMA Disaster Case Management Pilot program that initiated the formation of the MCMC idea. We consider it an honor to have been viewed as a partner within the disaster recovery efforts of the State of Mississippi as well as at the National level as a result of our participation in FEMA funded work. MCMC will continue to seek partnerships and projects that push forward the art of building relationships, within the State as well as throughout the Country and even Internationally as opportunities arise.

5th anniversary of Katrina

I participated in several events to commemorate the 5th anniversary of Katrina this past weekend. I am sure that many of you did as well. I heard inspiring messages and a great deal of thanks given to a huge number of groups. Volunteers were praised for their humanitarian service and their continued contributions to the recovery process. I listened as politicians thanked the crowds, and each other, for the fantastic work that has been done since August 29, 2005. I watched a large number of adults shed tears and I even got a bit choked up myself a few times. It was astonishing to hear the numbers as they were spoken about, both in terms of dollars and of temporary housing units alike. I sat for long stretches of time, thought about all that has taken place during this half decade, and fully understood that many of the accomplishments and achieved goals would not have been a reality had it not been for the people who are called case managers. I only heard the term “case management” spoken once during the events that I attended, and yet I knew that most of the progress that has been made on the human side of the recovery would have never occurred had it not been for those who continually work behind the scenes and who perform the “yeoman’s job,” as Governor Barbour described to me yesterday afternoon. While the work of case managers is not fully understood by many, the importance of your function is clearly understood by the Governor and his staff. I wanted to personally thank all of you who have worked tirelessly on many of the case management programs and initiatives that had existed since 2005, and I doubly thank you for your contributions to the Mississippi Case Management Consortium since 2008.
