Giving a Hand Up
We believe the best way to address poverty is to develop meaningful, trust-based relationships with others so we can work together as partners in the change process. Our goal is to help empower those we serve by encouraging them to be invested and involved in the change process – Giving a Hand Up instead of a Hand Out.
Many people grow up in generational poverty while others experience economic hardships after a job loss, divorce, or major medical problems. Getting out of these situations is often difficult as there can be many barriers in the way. Our Stepping Forward program hosted at Faith Community will help you gain specific skills, tools, and relational support so you can move out of poverty to a higher level of self-sufficiency.
Financial Counseling
It can be difficult to keep up with all the monthly bills, and you may feel like you can never get ahead. A trained financial counselor is available to help you take the first steps in managing your money or getting out of debt. Appointments are scheduled on Tuesday nights during Stepping Forward.
