About this organization
Mission
Our mission is to mobilize our community to equip and empower low-income individuals and families to be self-sustained and independent. Our vision is to be catalysts for transformation in our community by breaking the cycle of poverty through community development, collaborative partnerships, and wrap-around services. Our goal is to facilitate the journey from hand-outs (emergency relief) in crisis, to hand-ups (individual betterment) for those ready to rise above their circumstances, to hand-offs (community development) to indigenous leaders of a transformed community.
About

This program serves as a bridge between homelessness and self-sufficiency through empowering interns with the resources they need to take their next steps. Examples of services provided to our interns include housing, job-training, career-development, grocery assistance, transportation assistance, furniture assistance, and purposed mentoring/coaching.
