"Connecting families to the resources they need"
Manna Ministries Family Advocacy Program was established to link families with resources available in the community. This program aims to foster safe, stable, and self-sufficient families. If you know someone who could benefit from this program or would like more information, please reach out to Robin at Robin@mannaministry.net.​
We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Lower Pearl River Valley Foundation for their invaluable support of the Advocacy Program, which has positively impacted countless families in Pearl River County. Our mission remains focused on connecting families with essential resources to help maintain the integrity of the family unit.
​
​"Disrupting the family unit is often the worst-case scenario, but sometimes it becomes the only option until a parent is in a position to properly care for their child."
​
Our goal is to make any transition that must occur as easy as possible on the child and the family or relative with whom they will be staying.
​
Through the efforts of the Family Advocacy Program and our community partners 70% of the families we served were stabilized utilizing the resources we provided. Resources given to families range from substance abuse treatment, rental assistance, parenting classes, to items such as beds, car seats, and diapers.
