HOW WE HELP

Shepherd's Staff spends countless hours case managing every family who visits our ministry.  Whether it's one-time food service, monthly food service, utility assistance, emergency housing or to simply have someone to talk to, Shepherd's Staff is here to help.

Our highly trained volunteer staff works tirelessly to help improve the lives of the people we serve.  Upon arriving to our facility, each family completes paperwork, provides a valid ID and participates in an interview with one of our volunteers.  During this interview, a family budget is created and needs assessment documented.  We use the current Georgia Department of Commuity Health Indigent Income Levels to determine eligibility.

After the initial interview, each family must prove financial need by providing proof of current income and expenses upon returning for their second visit.  Once qualified, most families are eligible for one year of food service before reapplying.

 

 

Shepherd's Staff helps more than 11,000 people each year with food, clothing, utility assistance, emergency housing, glasses for school aged children, special holiday meals, a free shopping day at Christmas, continued education or connection to other community resources.

In addition, we provide targeted nutrition for clients who need help managing a health condition that can be improved through diet and exercise.

In the late '90s, the Community Chest organization was established by several local churches to help the needy people in Loganville, GA.  By the year 2000, the name was changed to Shepherd's Staff and incorporated as a 501(c) (3), tax-exempt, non-profit.  For more than 20 years, Shepherd's Staff has been serving the people of Loganville who need help the most.
