Social Service Unit
Our Social Services Unit offers counseling and support to assist clients to come to terms with their problems and discover solutions at the most basic level possible.

In some cases, a counselor may make referrals to other service organizations that are specifically geared to the needs of particular clients. In other instances, Crossroads serves an advocacy function, offering to the disadvantaged a handle on a social system that, largely, has forgotten them.

In addition to other services, Crossroads is able to provide material aid as necessary, such as food, transportation, clothing and the costs of identification and prescriptions.

Soup Kitchen
Each Sunday afternoon, Crossroads serves a hot meal to all who come. Teams from parishes and service organizations throughout the metro Detroit area host the Soup Kitchen.

Crossroads Employment Office
A job is an income, a sense of self-worth, and a commitment to the community; a job is the opportunity many seek. Crossroads Employment Office assists those seeking full-time work. Potential employers and job openings are canvassed in our Resource Room and applicants are screened and offered "job readiness" preparation prior to job interviews.

Crossroads Job Club
Crossroads' Job Club is a biweekly coming together of job seekers. Over lunch these clients hear speakers talk on employment skills and work ethics, and they provide each other with support and encouragement.

Life Skills
Crossroads has added a new Life Skills program for clients offered biweekly at the main office. Life skills is an enrichment program covering topics including interpersonal communication and household budgeting. Clients are invited to attend and enjoy a light lunch, guest speaker, along with an open discussion. This new program is well attended and a great addition to the services we provide for clients.

Summer Lunch Program
When the summer begins the opportunity for a provided meal ends for a number of Detroit area students, which is why Crossroads has started the Summer Lunch Program. We are partnering with the City of Detroit and Forgotten Harvest to provide meals for children in our surrounding neighborhoods consisting of a sandwich, milk, piece of fruit, and cookie. Children get to enjoy a nutritious lunch and leave with full bellies and smiles!
