COMMUNITY RESOURCES
All of us at PJWC understand that sometimes life gets tough and you need resources to help you get back on your feet. That's why we are a proud supporter of the organizations in our local communities listed below. In fact, we were able to contribute to SEVEN charities this year thanks to the tremendous support of our generous sponsors, volunteers and guests at our 2017 Spring Fling Casino Night Fundraiser!
Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery. This crime occurs when a trafficker uses force, fraud or coercion to control another person for the purpose of engaging in commercial sex acts or soliciting labor or services against his/her will. Force, fraud, or coercion need not be present if the individual engaging in commercial sex is under 18 years of age. To report suspected human trafficking activity: Call 1-888-373-7888 ( TTY: 711) or Text 233733

At Green Harvest, they feel that these uncertain times have led us toward aiding low-income families, retirees, and the workers of our community who have recently lost their jobs. They believe that there is a serious problem today when parents must decide between feeding, providing shelter, or buying medicine for their children.
