Mary is a mother of 2 and grandmother of 4 who lives on disability income. When one of her daughters lost custody of her children due to negligence, Mary accepted full custody and took them into her home. Raising two small children comes with a lot of expenses! The CAPS staff met with Mary, listened to her story, prayed with her, and provided some solutions. CAPS was able to assist Mary with some of the initial expenses while she sought long-term solutions to her new situation. CAPS also connected Mary to a local work program that hired her.

Emergency Assistance

We assist Suffolk residents who are experiencing crises by assessing their needs, praying with them, providing information and resources and directly contributing financially. Our staff meets one-on-one with individuals and families to seek to provide the most appropriate and effective assistance. Every person is unique and every situation is different so we provide tailored services rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.

Rashad is homeless and has been staying with various friends and relatives or in motels for months. During his meeting with CAPS, he learned of over 20 food pantries and free meals in Suffolk. He also learned of an opportunity to earn income through a local church’s community garden. By reducing the cost of food and increasing his income slightly, he has new strategies for reaching a stable housing situation.

Connection to Resources

CAPS networks with local help agencies and churches in order to provide more comprehensive assistance. Homeless shelters, food pantries, transportation services, counseling and legal assistance are some of the resources to which clients are connected.
