THESE HOUSEHOLDS WERE COMPRISED OF A TOTAL OF 3,146 PEOPLE (1,888 ADULTS, 60 SENIORS, AND 1,198 CHILDREN). 98% OF THESE HOUSEHOLDS ARE LOCATED IN UNION COUNTY, NEW JERSEY. ONE OF THE MOST BASIC AND CRITICAL NEEDS FOR IMPOVERISHED FAMILIES IS PROVIDING FOOD FOR THEIR CHILDREN. 1 IN 5 CHILDREN DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH FOOD TO EAT. IN THE INNER CITIES THE SITUATION IS MUCH WORSE. WITHOUT NUTRITIOUS FOOD CHILDREN CANNOT DEVELOP PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY AND UNDERPERFORM IN SCHOOL. STREETLIGHT IS ONE OF THE FEW CHOICE FOOD PANTRIES IN THE ELIZABETH AREA. FAMILIES SELECT THE FOOD THAT THEY WANT AND NEED. THIS REDUCES WASTE, ALLOWS FOR CULTURAL PREFERENCES, AND RESTORES DIGNITY.

THEIR SERVICES ARE DESIGNED TO EARN PEOPLE'S TRUST TO HELP THEM WORK ON THE MORE DIFFICULT PROBLEMS THEY FACE. THESE SERVICES INCLUDE: REFERRALS FOR SUBSTANCE ABUSE DETOX AND REHABILITATION AND WEEKLY RECOVERY MEETINGS, CRIMINAL RECORD EXPUNGEMENT, MAIL BOXES WITHOUT WHICH GUESTS COULD NOT GET PUBLIC ASSISTANCE AND HELP OBTAINING IDENTIFICATION CARDS ALLOWING THEM TO ACCESS SERVICES AND BEGIN WORK. THEY ALSO HOLD MONTHLY WOMEN'S EVENTS TO HELP ENCOURAGE AND EQUIP WOMEN AND CHILDREN. ONE OF THE GREATEST NEEDS FOR THE IMPOVERISHED IS EMPLOYMENT. STREETLIGHT IS WORKING ON PLANS TO SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE THEIR CAREER SERVICES TO HELP THE DIFFICULT TO EMPLOY PREPARE FOR AND ACCESS JOBS. THIS WILL INCLUDE THE ADDITION OF REGULARLY SCHEDULED EMPLOYMENT READINESS CLASSES, RESUME PREPARATION, AND PRACTICE INTERVIEWS. THEY ARE ALSO DEVELOPING STREETLIGHT ENTERPRISES TO PROVIDE TRANSITIONAL AND PERMANENT EMPLOYMENT TO THOSE IN NEED OF A FIRST SUCCESSFUL WORK EXPERIENCE. STREETLIGHT MISSION ALSO PROVIDES DISASTER RELIEF SERVICES THROUGHOUT UNION COUNTY, DURING HURRICANE SANDY THEY WORKED WITH GOVERNMENT, AREA SHELTERS, CHURCHES AND OTHER NONPROFITS.
