Community Transformation
The focus of community transformation is to bring about sustainable change that goes beyond meeting an immediate need or providing encouragement for those who may come to an event or program. Community transformation projects are specifically catered to a certain geographical area and designed to discover critical areas of need. From there we implement specific activities and programs that are designed to create a relevant application of positive change to combat the concerns and identified needs of the community.
This is accomplished through the following:
Economic Development, Research & Discovery, Spiritual Growth, Strategic Partnerships, Meeting Social / Educational Concerns, Fighting Oppression & Injustices, and Confronting Physical Needs
