Decatur Cooperative Ministry

Project take charge: project take charge offers homelessness prevention services to low-income and at-risk seniors, veterans, and families. Clients with a documentable threat of eviction, foreclosure, or utility disconnection may receive financial assistance to cover rent, mortgage, and utilities. Ptc also offers food security to low-income families through the operation of a food pantry and three food cooperatives. All clients who receive financial assistance attend a three-part financial management course. Culminating with a one-on- one budgeting consultation, the course offers participants the knowledge and skills needed to achieve long-term financial stability.
