Serving the needs of the poor is broader than just providing emergency funding. In fact, many are surprised to learn that many who are poor are those coming out of prison. The needs confronting those entering re-entry programs include housing, education, employment and many other similar needs as those who are living in poverty and are of low-income working families. Crime does impact poverty!
People from faith-based organization can and should develop an involvement with those coming out of jails and prisons. Services and voluntarism should provide assistance for those in need that are of low-income and entering into re-entry programs.
