Scott Foster, CEO of "The Journey Home" recently spoke to The Exchange Club of Murfreesboro. "The Journey Home" is a Christian ministry whose primary focus is to serve the homeless and disadvantaged of Rutherford County - providing practical resources for body, mind and spirit, and encouragement on their journey to economic stability and reintegration into community life.
Homelessness is a complex problem, usually the result of interconnected issues related to poverty and a lack of affordable housing. Its effects are far-reaching, impacting every facet of life. The best solutions involve the entire community through a broad array of programs and services that meet the homeless at their point of need providing them the time, resources and networks necessary to affect lasting change.
