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.
