MISSION STATEMENT
“to serve as an intermediary network agency bridging the faith-based,
community-based, and local area businesses in the region with their community
residents.” Our priority is to engage in collaborative efforts that revitalize
the community and “lift them up” efforts that strengthen family relationships by
creating more self-sufficiency opportunities for people that are low-income,
unemployed, and disadvantaged. Collaborative efforts include educational
workshops and events and the distribution of information covering leadership
development, employment, skills training, home and business ownership
opportunities and safe community initiatives.
