Meet the people who are making a
difference in our community
“Together, we have a way – through this organization – to coordinate various projects, identify the need for new policies and create better and stronger services to meet the needs of those facing homelessness in our community.”
— Janet Meeks, Education Coordinator, City of Delray Beach
“As a community outreach officer for the City of Delray Beach, I’ve seen firsthand how this initiative has helped people facing homelessness. The support, resources and services have allowed many to find housing, get jobs and experience success in their lives.”

“The real value of the group is the networking. Each month we exchange information and coordinate efforts. There’s so much benefit in understanding what people are doing out there and how we can reach out and support each other. We avoid duplication of effort and work together to support those in need.”
— Kathleen Megan and Judy Feeney, volunteers for the Caring Kitchen/CROS Ministries
