A new online tool aims to help connect state residents to resources in their area.
State officials announced the launch of “PA Navigate” earlier this week.
The website will help residents learn more about community-based organizations, county and state agencies, and healthcare providers.
It can also connect people with referrals to help them access food, shelter, transportation and more.
“PA Navigate is a groundbreaking resource that will enable greater collaboration between health care and social services organizations by allowing them to more easily and effectively work together to treat and support the whole person,” State Human Services Secretary Val Arkoosh said. “A person’s individual situation is complex, and factors like poverty, lack of stable housing, and food insecurity often impact an individual’s or family’s health.”
The website is PAnavigate.org.
