November Communion Offering

Emma Norton Services


The programs at Emma Norton have consistently successful outcomes. Every individual journey of recovery is unique, and across our organization we can measure the direct impacts we’ve had on moving those journeys toward wholeness. We know every little victory is a part of a success story worth celebrating.


Our programs have shown again and again that they are effective models to move our most vulnerable community members toward safe, stable housing, which provides a foundation for greater individual stability and wellbeing. In 2024, we served 363 individuals, with 50 percent identifying as BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) and all very low income. In our Family Housing, over 80 percent of individuals and children identify as BIPOC. See below for additional outcome measurements for 2024.


Overall 2024 outcomes :

  • 87% of all clients maintained housing for one year or more.
  • On average, 80% of all clients complete one or more goals on their stability plans annually.


Emma’s Place:

  • 100% of families maintained housing for 6 months or more or moved into permanent, affordable housing at exit.
  • 100% of adult heads of household engaged in services offered at Emma’s Place.
  • Over 90 youth (98%) participated in youth activities and programming.


Scattered-Site program:

  • 92% of tenants successfully completed their initial lease period upon moving into their own rental units.
  • 100% of households experiencing a crisis that potentially affected their housing stability received support to resolve it.

The Justice & Mercy team is collecting food and funds for holiday meal kits. These kits will be made available to our 3rd Saturday meal guests to take home in December. Suggested food items include canned green beans, cranberry sauce, instant potatoes, stuffing mix, boxed dessert, and reusable shopping bags. Funds collected will help us provide gift cards for perishables like ham, turkey, butter, and milk.


We will be collecting donations now through Wednesday, November 12th. Look for the shopping cart in the welcome area to donate food items. Funds can be donated on the website (see form below) or through offering (please designate for Justice & Mercy). On November 15th, representatives from the Conference are meeting in our space and they will begin sorting and assembling the kits. Then on November 16th, all are welcome to help finish sorting and assembling kits after the worship service.
