Care Coordination & Housing Support

We help people navigate healthcare, housing, and community resources to stay healthy and housed.

Overview

Our New Direction’s team supports individuals with complex medical and social needs through case management and care coordination services in Santa Clara County. Our team helps individuals navigate healthcare, housing programs, and community resources to improve health outcomes and maintain stable housing. Our right-sized caseloads allow for personalized, relationship-based care that promotes long-term stability.

Medical Case Management

Clinical Case Managers support individuals after a hospital or emergency department visit. Services help people safely transition back into the community by coordinating medical care, behavioral health, housing, and basic needs.

This approach reduces repeat hospital visits and improves overall health outcomes.

Enhanced Care Management (ECM)

Through CalAIM programs, PHC provides Enhanced Care Management for Medi-Cal members with complex health and social needs. Each participant is paired with a dedicated care manager who coordinates a team of healthcare providers and social services.

Housing & Social Services

We help individuals address health-related social needs through Community Supports, including:

  • Housing Transition Navigation
  • Housing Deposits
  • Tenant Support & Housing Stability Services
  • Community & Home Transition Services

Supportive Housing Services

We support individuals transitioning out of homelessness into permanent housing. Services focus on maintaining housing stability, addressing health needs, and building daily routines that improve quality of life.

Care coordination and housing services are provided by the New Directions team through partner referrals.

Give Through Your Assets

Some of the most meaningful gifts come through the assets you’ve built over a lifetime.

Whether you’re ready to make a gift or simply exploring your options, we’d be honored to start the conversation.
