Local Non-Profits to Share Services at Chester County Library Every Tuesday

Aug 5, 2024

(Exton, PA) Beginning on August 20, the Chester County Library & District Center will launch a new initiative called Connect Tuesdays. Every Tuesday, the Library will welcome a different non-profit organization to host an information table promoting their services. Topics will include housing, employment, mental health, disability assistance, and more.

Each week of Connect Tuesdays is dedicated to a different need: a housing organization will be available on the 1st Tuesday of every month, CareerLink’s employment services on the 2nd, the 3rd alternates between a variety of needs, and the 4th is dedicated to Representative Kristine Howard’s Mobile Office. In addition to the service organizations, patrons can also meet with a resource specialist, called a Mobile Navigator, from the Human Needs Network. This navigator, who will be onsite every Tuesday from 10:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m., can answer questions about social services needs and perform the intake necessary for certain support programs.

Participating organizations include Legal Aid of Southeastern Pennsylvania (LASP), the Housing Partnership of Chester County, Handi-Crafters, North Star of Chester County, the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Chester County PA Chapter, and more. Find the full schedule and visitation times at bit.ly/Connect-Tues-CCL. Questions can also be directed to the Chester County Library Reference Department at (610) 344-5957.

If you need help now, dial 2-1-1 to get connected with resources today. For mental health emergencies, dial 9-8-8. Both of these services are available 24/7.
