Hope Plaza is the city block where Christ Central Ministries was founded on May 18th, 1997. This location is where people in the midlands who are in need, come to find help and resources to reestablish hope in their lives. Here are the primary offerings at Hope Plaza:
Strategies for Life Improvement
Come in for an interview that will include assessment of your current housing, education, employment, job skills, health and financial issues, etc., and development of a strategy for improving your situation. The strategy will be based primarily on matching Client Needs with available Resources. Once that strategy is developed, we will meet with clients regularly to monitor progress and adjust strategies as needed. For an appointment, call 803-828-9125.
Our goals are to ensure:
-
That each person seeking improvement has a plan in place;
-
That each person seeking improvement has transportation to get to needed resources;
-
That all improvement plans are monitored and adjusted as necessary;
-
That all achieve success.
