Joining the show today is Pastor Vincent Mathews and Executive Pastor Jackie Pruitt of Tabernacle Church Southaven (in the former Colonial Hills Baptist Church facility). They describe the Mid-South Family Stabilization Hub, offering free community resources including domestic violence/sexual assault support (Project SWAT) with emergency and transitional housing, mentoring programs for men and youth in schools, food distribution and a free clothing closet, and partnerships that bring in large donations (e.g., World Vision). They also share plans for expanded prenatal services and a birthing center amid Mississippi’s infant and maternal health crisis, plus mental health counseling groups, trafficking awareness, and low-cost workforce training such as CDL classes and Google/healthcare certifications. They invite families to a May 16 community baby shower in Southaven and Tunica and encourage volunteering and donations.
