LOCAL Closer Look: Matthew 25 Nashville

Posted on Sunday, August 21, 2022 by Monika Kelly

Monika Kelly speaks with Jim Ward, Executive Director, Matthew 25 Nashville. More than a shelter, Matthew 25 is a Nashville-based, residential facility that provides housing, help and hope to veterans and homeless men in need. Their service-intensive
transitional housing program offers a safe, sober and supportive living environment for men wanting to turn their lives around. They help the men to return to independent living and obtain employment. In addition to beds and meals, they bridge the gap from homelessness to permanent housing by providing case management, employment and housing placement assistance, substance abuse recovery support, as well as life and social skills development and training. To find out whether most men choose to be homeless, be sure to listen.
