"I have been in and out of prison most of my life. When I wasn't in prison, most of it was lived without a home. I knew God was calling me out of darkness, but I couldn't find the road." Meet Tina, a former client and now friend of the COC. Over the years, we have had an opportunity to see her transform and flourish after employment training services. "Today I am actually a caseworker who has the privilege of helping others who don't have homes. The other day I had a series of meetings (one of them being at COC), and I had a moment where I did not recognize myself."

In 2020, each of you helped us continue to minister in Baton Rouge despite unknowns and adversity. Through your support, the COC was able to provide beds and household items for over 105 households! That means that over 200 adults and children experiencing homelessness during the pandemic now have a safe, welcoming place to call home. THAT is worth celebrating 🎉 Thank you for joining us in making a long-term impact in the lives of others in our community. ... See MoreSee Less

A new job training class is underway at Elevate Church of Baton Rouge! We have 12 students enrolled from across the city. 2020 was a difficult year in ministry, and classes were at a standstill to protect our clients and volunteers. It's exciting to be able to host classes again and see individuals work toward goals that could change their futures! ... See MoreSee Less

This year we choose: DIGNITY. | You may have noticed that we use some different phrases or wording when we speak about homelessness. This isn't to play a game of word smith. It's simply an effort to ensure dignity for those we serve. Rather than identifying someone as a homeless person, it is kind to note that they are "experiencing homelessness." The idea is that "homeless" is not an identifying character trait of a person. It is a challenge that can be overcome. Join us in communicating dignity and making a difference with our words in our community! ... See MoreSee Less
