Our Process
Connecting People in Need With Hope, Care, and Support.
When someone reaches out for help, Love INC listens, verifies the need, connects them with trusted churches and local resources, and follows up with care, prayer, and Christ-centered support and hope.
The Process
Helping Cuyahoga County Move From Crisis to Hope.
Love INC has been helping those in need in Cuyahoga County for 22 years. Love INC is primarily funded by donations and contributions from area churches, businesses and individuals. The Love INC Resource Center is the foundation of our ministry. Many clients who come to us are barely surviving. Our desire is to see them thrive, finding hope and and to ultimately be transformed by the love of Christ. When individual lives are transformed so are our communities.
1. Receive Request
Love INC receives requests for help directly from individuals and families or by referral through our network of churches and community agencies.
3. Refers to Resources
After the client’s need is analyzed and verified, the need is referred to the most appropriate Love INC partner church, agency, or faith-based organization to provide resources, programs or services that address the need. When appropriate, clients are encouraged to enroll in our Transformational Ministry Life Skills classes. To learn more about our Life Skills classes, click the link below.
2. Assess the Need
Specially trained Love INC staff and/or volunteers conduct an intake to examine the nature, extent and validity of the need. They also try to discover any deeper issues that might be fueling the crisis.
4. Follow Up
Love INC volunteers follow up with the client to see if the need was met. They also take the opportunity to provide spiritual and emotional support and try to connect the client to a local church if they desire.
