About the organization

Missions Agency / Non-Profit

Collaborative for Neighborhood Transformation is a strategy which helps churches minister in a wholistic manner to people in urban poor neighborhoods. It empowers people in their neighborhoods to take responsibility for their own lives. It helps neighbors to help their neighbors and moves them from welfare and relief to empowerment. It focuses on assets found in the neighborhood which fosters local ownership instead of being based on problems which they expect outsiders to fix for them. Neighborhood Transformation (NT) trains church lay-people how to enter a nearby poor neighborhood, develop relationships and identify assets already found in the neighborhood in individuals and groups. Then, by working with the local people, this information is used to improve the living conditions. NT has a data base of 1500 participatory lessons that help the trainers from the church train the local people.Teaching is done around topics of interest to the neighborhood.
