“Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed.”
Isaiah 1:17 (NLT)
Outreach on High
Outreach on High believes that those who are low-income, no-income, financially burdened, or who are living through difficult times are experiencing trauma. These households are in crisis. If a household comes to us in need, we recognize the amount of strength and humility it takes to ask for assistance. So, we strive to create an experience for them that is as low-barrier as possible.
We fully realize and recognize that our measures are a momentary pause in the lives of those who are in these situations. As such, we are working to partner with local agencies and service providers to create a holistic approach to sustainable aid. We want to be a household’s connecting point to the broader community. A way in for many of these individuals and families to seek out available, community resources without the burden of reliving their trauma.
