The community around First Baptist Church

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 2 in 10 renting households pay over half of everything they earn just to keep a roof over them. More than a third of working-age adults live without health insurance, and about a third describe their own health as fair or poor. That is 2,200 neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.
