While most participants are educated on all of the above subjects, a specific plan of action is tailored to meet each individual's need if a situation arises which needs more specific intense attention. WSOS Community Action Commission, Inc. has a working partnership with many local lenders to provide seminars and counseling services for their customers. We provide counseling services for participants interested in receiving Downpayment Assistance in Seneca, Sandusky, and Ottawa Counties.
Participants may also be referred to other programs or agencies, which may be better suited to an individual's needs.
If interested in obtaining more information on this program, please contact Charlene Watkins by email or phone at (419) 639-2802 or 1-800-775-9767.
