Community Compass is a non-profit community development corporation dedicated to giving people a hand up, not a handout. We exist to help people get on their feet, then guide them so they sustain their success. Our purpose is to help people go from lack to abundance, from weakness to strength, from dependence to independence. Our ultimate goal is to see people prosper and be in a position to give back to their community.
How We Support Through Housing Print E-mail

We Provide Support: In addition to the supplying the basic need of housing, Community Compass provides an array of support services available to our residents, upon their request.

  • House Chaplain: Provides biblical counseling, bible study and prayer
  • Mentor: Provides guidance and encouragement in improving education, job skills, overall life management, etc.
  • House Financial Advisor: Provides advice on setting up personal finances and budgeting.
  • Referral Services: Provides counseling referrals for emotional support for any issues beyond the scope of the program
  • Advisory Assistance: Assistance in helping resolving any house issues or disputes, when requested by the House Officers.

House Government: Our house model is a democratically operated living environment. Each member of the house has (1) one vote in all matters concerning the house. These votes take place at weekly meetings of the entire household, called the House Committee. This committee appoints, on a rotational basis, four officers (House Manager, House Treasurer, House Secretary and Chore Coordinator) to ensure that all house business is handled fairly and beneficially for all House Residents.

Resident Covenant: It is our hope that residents will agree to adopt our Resident Covenant in order to insure that the healthiest and most cooperative living conditions might be provided to all. Some of the ideas contained in the covenant include:

  • Cooperate respectfully with those in authority
  • Voluntarily Abstain from alcoholic drink, tobacco, illegal drugs and obscene pornographic media
  • Pursue your life goals with intensity and actively endeavor to share simple kindness, respect and love
  • Maintain a character of self control; not displaying rage or anger

House Residents Graduate: When a resident has completed his/her goals, has a plan for successful independent living and has paid all money owed to the program he/she can discuss graduating from the program with his/her Mentor. Since this program is designed to be temporary in nature, we applaud and encourage plans for our residents to take the next step. Additionally, we encourage residents to provide contact information upon leaving the program. This will enable Community Compass to follow-up with them at 3 months, 6 months and one year after graduation.
