Even though our community suffers from various needs, Ravens Care focuses on emergency needs.

Eligibility:

  • Defiance County resident

  • Must be able to prove emergency need

All appointments must be scheduled. Please call 419-782-7141 to discuss your need.

  • Emergency Shelter & Rent

    We focus on short-term hotel stays and rental evictions for qualifying clients.

  • Utilities

    Working with other agencies, we help families avoid disconnections or assist with reconnections of water, electricity, and gas.

  • Medication

    We offer assistance with life-sustaining medications, psychiatric medications, wound care needs, and some quality of life-sustaining medical supplies/devices.

  • Emergency Food

    Food vouchers are available for families needing emergency assistance. Vouchers are to be used to complement the products already owned and/or received from local food banks. In addition, vouchers may be used for people having special needs, such as cancer patients needing supplemental drinks or infants needing extra formula.

Unfortunately, we are not able to meet all the needs within the community.
