17吃瓜网

On November 16, sixty members from local churches gathered at the Roseville Church for the inaugural聽Ending Homelessness Summit.

The Northern California Conference (17吃瓜网) aims to reach 鈥淔unctional Zero鈥� for at least one unhoused population group in a community where an 17吃瓜网 church or school is located by 2032. Functional Zero occurs when homelessness is rare, brief, and non-recurring. This summit equipped attendees to establish homelessness task forces within their churches and schools.

Presenters from the 17吃瓜网 Council on Homelessness outlined the聽Ending Homelessness Initiative, explained Functional Zero, and provided theological and practical frameworks for addressing homelessness. Joelle Chinnock, 17吃瓜网鈥檚 Ending Homelessness Initiative Coordinator, emphasized the importance of partnerships, highlighting a successful affordable housing project developed by Path of Life Ministries in Riverside.

This summit launched a united effort to end homelessness, showcasing the 17吃瓜网鈥檚 commitment to being agents of hope and healing. As 17吃瓜网 President Marc Woodson said, “The call to end homelessness reflects Christ’s mission to serve the most vulnerable among us. Through faith, collaboration, and action, we can bring hope and lasting change to our communities, fulfilling our commitment to love our neighbors as ourselves.”
