Cooperative Christian Ministry - Financial Assistance Program

CCM's Financial Assistance program combines an immediate response to crisis with an expectation of personal responsibility to prepare for the avoidance of future crisis. A crisis is an economic problem resulting from an unexpected event or circumstance beyond the control of the individual, which threatens their ability to maintain the basic necessities of food, shelter, or prescription medications. Immediate assistance may be provided after the crisis is validated and the client’s ability to solve the problem on their own has been evaluated.

Assistance may be provided to avoid utility cut-off, to avoid eviction or foreclosure, to avoid loss of heating or cooling during critical seasons, or to avoid absence of life sustaining medications
