Unfortunately, KEJC just announced they are ceasing operations. Per the article:
"Cooper says, "The reality is that like many non-profits around the country frankly we were running a tight ship here, with very thin margins and our financial situation is always reliant on donors and grants. [...]
Cooper explains, "People who are more powerful and people who have positions of power and that the law is written to favor can do whatever they want. That leads to increases in homelessness when it comes to housing and eviction cases, it increases hunger in terms of food and benefits, and we know those programs are under attack." [...]
He says, "You know, I just hope that anyone out there that's concerned about what's happening will do whatever they can. If they have money to give, give money. If they have time to give, give time. If it's just amplifying those messages coming from all these organizations who are needing help, then do that. You know, we hope to find a way forward here at KEJC but more importantly we want the work to continue."
