New CAM Website!!

Our friends at CAM,Inc (Coordinated Assistance Ministries) have launched their new website. We are placing a permanent link on our page so you can get involved. (http://caminchopeforhomeless.org/home)

The Mission of Coordinated Assistance Ministries is to unify the assistance ministries of the religious community, show God’s love, meet needs not being met by community agencies, and cooperate with social service agencies in meeting the needs of our community.

CAM, Inc. exists through generous donations of churches, organizations, and individuals of our wonderful community. Their service area includes Howard, Carroll, Cass, Clinton, Miami and Tipton Counties.

Each year CAM serves over a thousand individuals and families. Their doors are open each week day as a Day Shelter. Those in need may come in for a cup of coffee, a donut and fellowship. Clients needing help can see the Supervisor who assesses their needs and helps them in accessing government and private assistance programs

SIL works with CAM, Inc. in many outreaches including the Transportation Outreach and Jobs Task Force. We are placing a permanent link on the our page so you can get involved.

CAM, Inc. fills a very critical niche. Some of the reasons a person would need CAM include:

Keeping family housing
Finding place to live
Finding jobs that sustain families (Jobs Program link on this site)
Phones and Message center for receiving phone calls for work or housing
Providing a Safe address

Transportation
Help filling out papers
Lost ID
Hygiene kits
Bicycles for a job
Waiting for appointments with other agencies
Medicine and Nursing assistance
Help with drug & alcohol addictions

We are lifted up when people show God’s love in a practical way.
