In the past year FCFC has mobilized 100-faith based social service providers, and link together 300 churches and 750 individuals, in order to help address the pressing social problems in Dade County. Along with the national spirit of cooperation between the government and faith-based groups, which began with the "Charitable Choice" provisions of the federal Welfare Reforms laws,FCFC plans to continue our mobilization efforts with faith-based groups. |
