Circles is an initiative which helps low-income people become self-sufficient while also giving them the opportunity to be involved in community change efforts. Circles creates relationships across class lines by matching volunteers from the middle class and wealth to a family or individual in poverty, creating a positive and supportive "intentional friendship". Circles meets weekly on Wednesday evenings.
Become an Ally - volunteer as an "intentional friend" to a person/family in poverty, attend 2 Wednesday evening meetings per month.
