Non-profit OrganizationsSouth Dakota, United States2-10 Employees

The Community Outreach is an ecumenical non-profit ministry that has existed in the Sioux Falls area for over 30 years. The ministry was founded by local clergy who saw a need to supplement the welfare programs state and local entities offered. The ministry strives to fill in some of the gaps left by the public welfare system, while personally relating to and caring for each person who comes to us.

We are generously supported by churches, the United Way, businesses and private donations … and have become well known in the area as a place to go for help. We serve more than 8000 people per year in four main areas:

1. Crisis Care financial assistance for rent, utilities, and work-related transportation;

2. Information and referral to other social service agencies (We act as a clearing house for social services information.); and

3. Genesis Mentoring Program works by teaching financial management skills through adult mentoring to empower a new beginning. 

4. Hezekiah House where we partner with you to make a house your home through financial education and home ownership skills.
