Love Inc Of Treasure Valley

Love INC engages local churches to create positive change in lives and communities in the name of Christ. This is accomplished through acts of service, donated items, and relational programs that significantly impact those in need. While Love INC does not offer financial aid, it provides free community courses and a comprehensive program aimed at helping individuals escape debt and stabilize their situations. Classes may cover topics such as financial management, job skills, parenting, life skills, shopping, cooking, and nutrition. Love INC emphasizes building relationships with individuals to assist them in transitioning from ongoing or temporary need to a sustainable and stable lifestyle. Those seeking help should contact the Clearinghouse, where requests are assessed and verified for authenticity before resources are allocated. Love INC also refers clients to other agencies and engages volunteers from over 50 partner churches to meet community needs through various outreach efforts. Volunteers from these churches offer a range of services using their skills to assist those in need who might otherwise be overlooked. Donated goods, including clothing, coats, and household items, are accessible through the Clearinghouse voucher system. The organization prioritizes the New Hope Relational Program, a long-term and accountable initiative designed to guide individuals out of financial difficulties and towards a debt-free lifestyle. Adults residing in the household must attend weekly group classes and have sessions with a personal Budget Mentor. The New Hope Relational Program is rooted in Christian principles, with prayer being a key component of each class and meeting. The Transformational Programs are not based on income, and individuals of any faith can participate. These programs are available for those looking to establish a disciplined life plan and achieve financial independence. Grace Place (Resale Store) operates Tuesday to Saturday from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm. Languages spoken include English.
