Upcoming Events

Interfaith Human Services is conducting a variety of surveys over the next few months. We'll be surveying clients, staff and community partners to identify service gaps and ways that IHS can better support the community. Your input is valuable and we'd love for you to join us for a focus group discussion following the CCCHS meeting in November (November 6, 1pm).

We will meet at Calvary Church and we're estimating the discussion will last 45 - 60 minutes. Refreshments will be provided. If you're able to join us, please RSVP to Kendra at kendra@calvarysc.org.
