My interactions with the entire team at HWCLI have consistently been positive and productive. I would wholeheartedly recommend HWCLI without reservation. This organization is not only doing vital work for the community, their heart is in the game. HWCLI’s Healthcare Access Lead, Liz, and Community Health Outreach Specialist, Melea, are real stand outs at HWCLI. Their ongoing support has been invaluable. They are both solution-oriented professionals who strongly advocate for their clients and follow through to get results. They demonstrate the rare combination of exceptional competence and genuine compassion. They truly care and exemplify what outstanding service looks like.

Working with the Health & Welfare Council of Long Island was a wonderful experience. Roberto, HWCLI’s Queens Nutrition Outreach Education Program Coordinator, assisted my sibling in applying for his SNAP benefits, as he does not have access to a computer and needed help completing the forms. HWCLI was extremely helpful and went above and beyond our expectations! During the application process they even took the time to educate us on other resources that might be available to him. I would absolutely recommend HWCLI to others.

With the threats, changes, and hostile environment that people and families in need of social services are experiencing, it is helpful to have HWCLI to navigate the difficult process. Having someone with SNAP program expertise, compassion, and confidence to get issues resolved is deeply important. Roberto, the Queens Nutrition Outreach Education Program Coordinator’s, attention to issues that arise is appreciated. It is a relief to have assistance and not feel alone in the process. Thank you for your timely attention, expertise, and help!
