Founded in 2006, The Journey Home is a Christian ministry whose primary focus is to serve the homeless and disadvantaged of Rutherford County – providing practical resources and relationships that encourage faith, economic stability, wholeness, and reintegration into community life.Homelessness is a complex problem, generally the result of interconnected issues related to poverty and a lack of affordable housing. Its effects on families and individuals are far-reaching, impacting every facet of life, and for most of the community, very difficult to understand. However, the best and most lasting solutions involve the entire community: they include a broad array of coordinated programs and services that meet each person at their point of need, providing the time, resources and networks necessary to build relationships that affect change. Effective solutions promote awareness of and intervention in community systems at their point of failure, and provide opportunities for every member to work with each other to build an inclusive community. The Journey Home's approach endeavors to stabilize crises by meeting basic needs, encouraging transformation through sustainable, long-term investment of both the individual and community at-large.
