People Helping People - That's what we do at North Hills Community Outreach. This short story that illustrates how we are serving those in need.

A trio of programs at North Hills Community Outreach is helping a 44-year-old woman get on track to a better life. Melissa first came to NHCO this past summer to get help with paying utility bills. The childcare center where she worked closed because of the pandemic. She was also in the process of leaving a very unhealthy and unhappy marriage that was straining her mentally and financially.
