Good Samaritan Network Overview

MEETING PEOPLE AT THEIR NEED ... EMPOWERING PEOPLE IN THEIR LIVES!

The Good Samaritan Network was formed in March of 1995, evolving from a group of programs and services in existence since early 1980. Mission The mission of Good Samaritan Network is to demonstrate the unconditional love of Christ by serving the physical, financial and emotional needs of at-risk individuals and families in Hamilton County. Vision The vision of Good Samaritan Network is to position ourselves in the community with a suitable location and with strong physical and financial resources - aligned to an effective organizational structure for the facilitation, collaboration, and coordination of appropriate services to those residents of Hamilton County in need of physical, spiritual and emotional support; who find themselves among the at-risk people we serve. Values We are specialists in creating and nourishing relationships with county residents and Network partners as collaboratively we focus on serving the underserved and at-risk in situational scarcity. (see our detailed values listing) GSN provides direct care when clients have nowhere else to turn, especially considering generational and situational poverty. Typically our DIRECT services involve emergency or crisis intervention for: housing and utility assistance, food insecurities, minimal car repairs, medical and prescription assistance, as well as educational opportunities for improving individual independence. Financial backing and support of GSN, including programming and events, is provided solely based on donations and grants secured by GSN. Funding assistance and direct support is quickly dispensed through a client application process - which involves client ownership/participation. GSN’s receipt of financial and in-kind donations - directly impacts our ability to serve clients. Similarly GSN has become the signature Holiday Assistance program in Hamilton County with basic holiday provisions (Holiday food, clothing, toys, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Eve meals, etc.) available for countless individuals and families. Besides our “red barrel” program, GSN also coordinates Holiday iSponsorship with various agencies, organizations, individuals and churches who serve numerous Hamilton County families during the Holidays. GSN offers life skill training instances through a series of structured courses that provide at-risk individuals with the necessary tools for developing specific and confident abilities, empowering them and their families for honest growth and development. Just as importantly, these educational opportunities have the potential to enable them with likely transformation and allow them to see the possibility of healthy steps toward life-change. inDIRECT services, through the GSN Network, was established to ensure efficiency and communication among the different groups who serve the needs of Hamilton County residents at-risk. GSN provides resources and support for critical human services to network service providers making them stronger and more effective; with a goal of uniting for the common good rather than duplicating efforts and competing for funding. Additionally, we directly collaborate with Hamilton County schools to assist and support families and children in need. GSN can only accomplish these acts of service through the volunteer contributions, extreme engagement and deliberate participation of numerous agencies, churches, organizations and individuals. It is in the empowerment of serving by our members, ministry partners, volunteers, and the entire community, that we are able to provide loving hope and help. Finally, we believe we instill empowerment for transforming lives and equipping individuals in developing strong families, friends and neighbors - as together we continue “Meeting People At Their Need!”

Good Samaritan Network Overview

MEETING PEOPLE AT THEIR NEED ... EMPOWERING PEOPLE IN THEIR LIVES!

The Good Samaritan Network was formed in March of 1995, evolving from a group of programs and services in existence since early 1980. Mission The mission of Good Samaritan Network is to demonstrate the unconditional love of Christ by serving the physical, financial and emotional needs of at-risk individuals and families in Hamilton County. Vision The vision of Good Samaritan Network is to position ourselves in the community with a suitable location and with strong physical and financial resources - aligned to an effective organizational structure for the facilitation, collaboration, and coordination of appropriate services to those residents of Hamilton County in need of physical, spiritual and emotional support; who find themselves among the at-risk people we serve. Values We are specialists in creating and nourishing relationships with county residents and Network partners as collaboratively we focus on serving the underserved and at-risk in situational scarcity. (see our detailed values listing) GSN provides direct care when clients have nowhere else to turn, especially considering generational and situational poverty. Typically our DIRECT services involve emergency or crisis intervention for: housing and utility assistance, food insecurities, minimal car repairs, medical and prescription assistance, as well as educational opportunities for improving individual independence. Financial backing and support of GSN, including programming and events, is provided solely based on donations and grants secured by GSN. Funding assistance and direct support is quickly dispensed through a client application process - which involves client ownership/participation. GSN’s receipt of financial and in-kind donations - directly impacts our ability to serve clients. Similarly GSN has become the signature Holiday Assistance program in Hamilton County with basic holiday provisions (Holiday food, clothing, toys, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Eve meals, etc.) available for countless individuals and families. Besides our “red barrel” program, GSN also coordinates Holiday iSponsorship with various agencies, organizations, individuals and churches who serve numerous Hamilton County families during the Holidays. GSN offers life skill training instances through a series of structured courses that provide at-risk individuals with the necessary tools for developing specific and confident abilities, empowering them and their families for honest growth and development. Just as importantly, these educational opportunities have the potential to enable them with likely transformation and allow them to see the possibility of healthy steps toward life-change. inDIRECT services, through the GSN Network, was established to ensure efficiency and communication among the different groups who serve the needs of Hamilton County residents at-risk. GSN provides resources and support for critical human services to network service providers making them stronger and more effective; with a goal of uniting for the common good rather than duplicating efforts and competing for funding. Additionally, we directly collaborate with Hamilton County schools to assist and support families and children in need. GSN can only accomplish these acts of service through the volunteer contributions, extreme engagement and deliberate participation of numerous agencies, churches, organizations and individuals. It is in the empowerment of serving by our members, ministry partners, volunteers, and the entire community, that we are able to provide loving hope and help. Finally, we believe we instill empowerment for transforming lives and equipping individuals in developing strong families, friends and neighbors - as together we continue “Meeting People At Their Need!”
