Jack Church spoke with Sharon Criswell, Outreach Director for The Care Center in New Hope, Alabama. Criswell talked about how the center started over 20 years with 4 churches coming together to help children and families in need across SE Madison County. The center now has over a dozen churches and a countless number of volunteers helping serve well over one thousand people thru education programs, a food pantry and three thrift stores. Criswell talked about how the education programs combined with a financial awareness program can help move families out of generational poverty and into improved long term employment and financial stability.
