Emergency Assistance

The Emergency Assistance Outreach Ministry responds to calls received, typically on our Emergency Helpline, for assistance with basic needs or other emergent needs, such as utilities and food. We generally limit our assistance to those in the Johnson County area. We also partner with other community organizations to assess the need and provide appropriate assistance, when possible, with not only the short term financial need, but also the long term needs that will help people get back on their feet. Volunteers rotate monitoring the Emergency Helpline throughout the year.
