  • As a member of the Cobb County Multi-Agency Supportive Housing Program,
    Travelers Aid provides case management to families in four transitional housing units.
    The five agencies involved (Center for Family Resources, the Cobb YWCA, the Cobb
    Community Services Board, the Cobb Human Services Coalition Long Term Family
    Support Team, and Travelers Aid) collectively establish policies and procedures
    for case management and program operation. Oversight is handled by the
    Center for Family Resources.

    Travelers Aid is a founding member of the collaborative of service providers that has
    launched the Pathways Computer case management database. By bringing agencies
    on-line and sharing their client data, the Pathways system enhances collaborative
    relationships, prevents duplication of services, extends limited resources, and
     increases the impact of the services provided by the member agencies.
