The community around First Presbyterian Church

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 3 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. About 2 in 3 the children here are growing up below the poverty line, and nearly half of adults live with obesity. That is 2,200 neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
