What does it look like for wrap-around resources to be readily accessible? In today's conversation, we're taking a look at a an innovative collaboration that challenges us to expand our understanding of what it can look like to build community by meeting people where they are -- at home. Affordable housing can provide so much more than a residence, but rather a home and a community of supports. Joining us to share more about the ways Memphis - and Memphians - are leading in this work are Ephie Balled Johnson of Neighborhood Christian Centers, Inc. and Sarah Jemison of ALCO Management. Resources mentioned in this episode include: ALCO Mangament Neighborhood Christian Centers, Inc.

I don't know about you, but we're feelin' 2022! For our final "favorite thing" and the first episode of 2022, Christy Mullen (our weekly co-host and Director of Marketing and Communications) shares her favorite... "the wonderful and effervescent Ephie...". It originally aired in June of 2021, and is actually our longest episode to date at an hour and 20 minutes. We trimmed it down for today, but please feel free to scroll on back and listen to the full cut later on! Happy New Year, Memphis! Ephie Ballard-Johnson is at the helm of "the family business" of caring for people as the President and CEO of Neighborhood Christian Centers (a 44-year-old Memphis organization!). They're tackling not only systematic, multi-generational challenges by bridging the immediate gaps, focused on truly meeting each individual where they are - insisting it's never too late to make an authentic change.   In this episode, she's bringing it in for the real deal with this genuine conversation about everything from leading by example to learning not to cry over logistics. Plus we'll chat about her 2015 TEDxMemphis talk, "Do First Years Last a Lifetime?" where she explains the urgency of intersecting with a person in need sooner rather than later. Her hustle knows no bounds!   You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll leave fully inspired by this extended-cut episode (including 20 extra minutes of goodness that we didn't have time for live on air).

Today, on the show, we're excited to introduce you to Ephie Ballard-Johnson, whose take on the Gospel has informed her life as a professional vocalist, CEO of Neighborhood Christian Centers, mom, and small business owner.
