It truly takes a community to provide supports to our neighbors who are experiencing a financial crisis, and we are fortunate to live in one that is continually striving to improve these supports. Our Financial Empowerment mentoring client Roshon gave powerful testimony on October 10 before Fairfax County’s Consolidated Community Funding Advisory Committee (CCFAC).
Roshon shared the challenges she and her family have experienced due to high rent, and she detailed the ways Britepaths’ holistic services provided them with the tools and resources that are helping them change their trajectory.
Britepaths receives significant grants through Fairfax County’s Consolidated Community Funding Pool that help make our stability and personal empowerment programs possible. Roshon was one of many County residents who testified as they assess housing and community development needs to be addressed in the One-Year Action Plan for FY 2025.
We are thankful to Roshon for testifying, and to CCFAC and the many Fairfax County departments and their staff who are working to better understand and address the needs of the community members we serve.
