CNC impact
CNC is working on an initiative in which congregations and faith-based organizations can partner with other groups to provide assistance and prayer support, share resources, develop community or regional services, and provide effective assistance during times of crisis. Faith-based groups are locally focused on the people in their immediate area and have invaluable knowledge of the needs, values, and resources of their community, as well as access to people and assets. These groups are able to be the true first responders in times of crisis.Sometimes they are knowledgeable of the types of programs that positively influence the spiritual and physical needs of their area. Because of established relationships they may be particularly suited to provide a unifying and coordinated presence and effort to uplift and serve the people of their neighborhood.
