The Good Faith Network has been calling on the county commission to make systemic plans, but leaders continue to drag their feet.

Now, with a brutal winter upon us, we gather on Project 1020’s opening day for a communal lament that we leave it to volunteer-led shelters to keep the most vulnerable alive and out of the deadly cold.

'The Good Faith Network is among the local groups calling for a crisis stabilization center in Johnson County, according to Ali Haynes, the pastor at Indian Heights United Methodist Church.

​

“A crisis stabilization center is the centerpiece of the crisis continuum,” Haynes said, adding that they are urging the county to have a center by 2025.'
