Livingston County Continuum of Care 2025 Community Connect

The Livingston County Homeless Continuum of Care is reminding residents to mark their calendars for Community Connect 2025, which will be held on Saturday, February 1 at 2|42 Community Church in Brighton. We’re busy planning the final details of the event, but look forward to bringing the community another day of connection with services, free resources, and plenty of helpful information. Everyone in our community who could benefit from these services and resources is welcome to attend. “New this year, the Secretary of State Mobile Office will be on-site and provide a variety of services. Necessary documents and fees will still apply, but we are excited to have a new service for our guests” said Amy Johnston, Community Collaborative Planner for the Livingston County Human Services Collaborative Body. If you are interested in visiting the SOS Mobile Office at the event, please view https://milivcounty.gov/hscb/homeless-care/sos-mobile/ to see what documentation you’ll need to bring with you.

The event will offer many valuable resources for Livingston County residents. Some of the free services will include health screenings, haircuts, legal services, and information on topics like housing, utility programs, and basic needs. Many free resources will be available as well. Those who attend can pick up personal care items, winter gear, laundry detergent, diapers, food, and more. No registration is needed to attend, and families are more than welcome! (Please note that childcare will not be provided.) Thank you to 2|24 Community Church for hosting the event and the following sponsors who make Community Connect possible, Livingston Sunrise Rotary, Brighton Masonic Lodge, and the Livingston County Homeless Continuum of Care.

Finally, volunteers always help make this day possible. There are plenty of volunteer opportunities available from event set-up and tear down, loading assistance, guest guides, and more.
