The Rev. Dr. Karen Brown is a Resource Developer at the Intersection of Change, which is a community-based nonprofit organization focused on community development. The organization is dedicated to providing programs that enrich the economic, social, and spiritual lives of those dealing with poverty-related issues. The Emmanuel Outreach Committee awarded a grant of $5,000 to the Intersection of Change in 2018, which in turned used the funds to support Strength to Love II. This program operates an urban farm and serves ex-offenders returning to the community by providing food gift certificates and offers employment, assistance with ID renewals, transportation to appointments, and other assistance as needed. Herschel Wade, Chair of the Outreach Committee, will introduce members of the Intersection of Change and speak briefly about the program.
