Reconciliation Outreach provides comprehensive faith-based programs designed to end the cycle of poverty for neighborhood children, youth and families. After-school programs for at-risk children from kindergarten to fifth grade provide mentoring and one-on-one tutoring. The summer camp program serves ages five through 18. The organization also provides temporary transitional housing for the working poor who need to rebuild their finances in a safe environment in order to become self-sufficient members of their community.
Keynote speaker for the luncheon will be The Honorable Faith Johnson, District Attorney for Dallas County. Event co-chairs are Judy Martin and Jean Raub.
