Ron Turner talks with Frank Roe, Executive Director of Christian Care, serving Rock Island and the Quad Cities, providing compassionate, practical support to individuals and families facing housing instability and poverty. Roe discusses the shelter, meal ministry, and street outreach services Christian Care provides, including case management, identification recovery, transportation help, and housing referrals. Roe also shares information about the organization’s faith-based mission, strong community partnerships, and relationship-driven approach to removing barriers to stability. He explains how ongoing follow-ups and collaboration with health, mental health, and housing agencies create long-term progress. A powerful highlight: Christian Care serves three meals a day, 365 days a year, and saw a 9% increase in meals served last year. (https://christiancareqc.org)
