Over the years, United Ministries staff and volunteers learned that if an organization is willing to develop caring relationships with people and serve as an advocate for participants, then significant change can happen.

Our model has now been used for over fifteen years to achieve successful results. Personal relationship is the key to ensure that participants remain committed to the opportunities offered by programs. Our skilled staff first assess an individual’s needs, place the participant in the appropriate phase of the program and then follow through while he or she is attaining his or her goals.

United Ministries offers four distinct programs that address the root causes of poverty, homelessness, and unemployment. The programs and services of United Ministries assist hundreds of families each month in their progress toward stabilization. With the focus on intervention, rather than entitlement, United Ministries' programs encourage people to take steps that will help them meet their needs and those of their families in healthy and edifying ways.

For example, the United Ministries’ programs form a complete continuum of care that can remove the barriers that cause homelessness, foster stability in employment and motivate towards success through enrollment in post-secondary education.
