- Venitia Smith
The Center for Family Resources has 11 apartment units within the Cobb County area that serve as our Short-Term Housing (shelter for homeless families). Children and their family may stay in the apartment for 30-45 days while working to secure permanent housing. Quarterly we update all units with new mattresses and do minor maintenance to help keep the units as comfortable as possible. Historically, our Short-Term Housing Manager has maintained the units; however, since growing the number of apartment units from 5 units to 12 units; we need additional help to ensure all the apartments get regular TLC.
Below is a list of small jobs that may be needed in each apartment unit.
• Changing out mattresses
• Wiping down air vents
• Wiping down window frames/walls/baseboards
• Mopping Floors
• Shampooing Carpet/ wiping down upholstery
• Making sure handles/closet doors are secure
• Tightening up furniture that may be loose.
