INCREASING OUR IMPACT

We are pleased to announce that Ken Quick has joined the Licking County Coalition of Care as our new Community Navigator!

Ken will work alongside individuals and families experiencing homelessness and housing instability, helping them overcome barriers and connect with essential services, resources, and support.

This role will strengthen our ability to walk alongside people during some of life’s most difficult moments—treating every person with dignity and respect while offering hope when circumstances feel hopeless.

A lifelong Newark resident, Ken brings valuable experience in healthcare, nonprofit leadership, and community service. His compassion, attention to detail, and commitment to caring for the whole person will make him a tremendous asset to our organization and those we serve.

We are sincerely grateful to the Licking County Foundation and generous donors for making the Community Navigator initiative possible. Ken is one of five Navigators placed within local organizations who will work collaboratively across agencies to create a stronger, more connected system of care throughout Licking County.

Please join us in welcoming Ken to the Coalition of Care! We are excited about the experience, heart, and dedication he brings to this work.
