Barrier Busters is a group of 90+ social service agencies committed to improving services for Washtenaw County residents
in need. Each member agency identifies a “Barrier Buster” who is an agency’s point of contact and facilitates collaborative
case management between member agencies. To serve residents in need, member agencies have access to the “Barrier
Busters Emergency Unmet Needs” Fund – public and private funds that provides social workers, case managers, and other direct service providers access to emergency assistance funds for clients. This fund provides agencies an efficient way to
prevent evictions and utility shut-offs; and assist with other emergency costs that threaten residents’ housing and financial
stability. Residents in need work with their existing provider to access financial assistance.
