Real Change, Measurable Impact
Radical Life
Since launching in March 2021, Radical Life has helped families build stability and break cycles of poverty. As of July 8, 2024, graduates from Cohorts 1–6 have experienced powerful transformation:
$22,673 increase in total monthly income.
$77,776 in debt relieved.
73% of participants on parole or probation successfully completed their programs.
10 adults have pursued their education—5 enrolled, 5 earned their diploma or GED.
$2,507 reduction in monthly reliance on government assistance.
These numbers tell a bigger story: when families have the tools and support they need, they rise.
CarePortal
We’re proud to share the incredible impact CarePortal is making in our community since launching in July 2023:
We are partnered with 7 agencies (organizations who share vetted requests onto the CarePortal dashboard), 7 local churches (who help meet CarePortal requests), and 51 community members (individuals who help provide funding and tangible needs for CarePortal requests).
We’ve seen an economic impact of $75,691, which are funds alleviated from local agencies and struggling families.
188 children and 73 adults have been served in our county.
