Urban Ministries Prayer Breakfast

Central Dallas Ministries is proud to announce our 15th Annual Urban Ministries Prayer Breakfast on Tuesday, April 6, 2010 at The Fairmont Dallas.

With the opening of citywalk@akard, a vertical neighborhood in the heart of Downtown Dallas, we have made our mark as a leader in the Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) movement. A first of its kind in Dallas, the 15-story building at 511 N. Akard is providing office and retail space, as well as a home to over 200 new residents, 50 of whom are formerly homeless.

In order to capitalize on the opening of this new project and give further life to the discussion of the need for more PSH options in the city, we have invited Rosanne Haggerty, Founder and President of Common Ground in New York City to be our guest speaker. Haggerty comes to the table with over 20 years of experience as an international leader in developing community strategies to end homelessness.

Central Dallas Ministries has been on the forefront of the issues and concerns of the community in which we live and work. We want you to be a part of this crucial and timely conversation which includes city officials, community leaders, homeless advocates, supportive citizens, financial backers and business leaders – all play a pivotal role in addressing the needs of the most vulnerable among us.
