A new community problem that aligns with our organizations mission is the lack of accountability within the community as a whole.
Our organization’s mission and objective are to advocate for, and support abused, neglected, foster, and at-risk children and to provide prevention programs to the community. To help implement our mission, there is an understanding and a level of accountability that must be taken. Another step to address the problem is by providing intervention services and providing community awareness.
