Step 1: Identify Community of need

Communities of need exist in cities and towns, places where people are particularly vulnerable to damaging outcomes. These areas are found in rural, suburban, and urban settings.

To identify communities of need, consider taking the following steps:

• Pray asking God to help you find the difficult places. Ask Him for the challenging assignment.

• Utilize statistics and data from city, county, state, or national resources

• Ask help from church members, local schools, or city officials to find places with unmet need.
