Description: My mission and goal for this ministry is to bring a change and have an impact on the world we live in today. My current project right now is to provide a 6 month turn around program for homeless individuals ranging from 13 years of age and older. I’m targeting youth, single parents, pregnant woman, families who’ve lost their homes and individuals who have been incarcerated, that need a chance to get back on their feet. Within the first 3 months, they will learn how to properly take job interviews, will be placed into jobs and will have a monthly incentive. Each individual will have counselors available to keep track of their daily activities. Those activities include: applying for jobs, health issues, and counseling services. There will be 5 buildings. The first one will handle all medical care. The 2nd building (2 Combined Buildings) will house individuals and individuals with kids. The 3rd building (2 Combined Buildings) will house youth(13-17yrs old) and pregnant women. After the first 3 months, the last 3 months will allow the individuals to live in apartments or houses owned by the organization. They will pay rent to us for the remaining 3 months and after that they will have the opportunity to live where they choose too. My goal is to not only have a location here in the state that I live, but I want to make this opportunity available to everyone. Bringing this opportunity to homeless individuals from all over the county and world.
