Frustrated with band-aid solutions to material poverty?
Poverty is a complex problem with no single solution.
Sometimes, it can feel like we’re only addressing the symptoms of poverty without getting to the underlying causes.
At the Chalmers Center, we believe in a different approach to helping our low-income neighbors.
We focus on healing the broken relationships at the root of poverty so people can experience lasting transformation.
We'll equip you to help people escape the cycle of poverty—and truly flourish.

“The best part of Work Life, Cheek says, is how the classes start from and reinforce the importance of relationships. Not only are people being transformed by God through this process, but they are also staying connected through alumni meetings. The Work Life Network has also had some graduates come back to serve as class facilitators.”
