Love Acts is a nonprofit organization that battles homelessness and substance abuse through relationships and faith-based guidance to individuals experiencing homelessness. In addition, we assist fellow Christians and groups in outreach efforts.. Our goal with each relationship is life change through reliance and faith in Jesus Christ. We connect Christian life mentors with homeless individuals in weekly faith-based 12 step life recovery meetings which transition to one-on-one mentoring relationships. Our method of coaching recovery and transformation is to guide others towards a reconciliation with God, then self, family and community. We offer guidance to individuals experiencing homelessness towards resources for critical documentation, government filings, job readiness, employment, housing and transportation assistance. We carry out outreach in the form of provision of living necessities and resource guidance to unsheltered persons living in encampments and on the street. We offer financial assistance for family reunification.

Mission
In the spirit of 1 John 3:17-18, the mission of Love Acts is to demonstrate love for our brothers and sisters in the homeless community "with actions and in truth" by meeting them at their point of spiritual, physical, and financial need. We accomplish this purpose in two ways: 1) by teaching and training Christians to mentor, encourage, and serve those in the homeless community on a one on one basis, and 2) by helping churches and individual Christians connect with other brothers and sisters in the homeless community who desire to live a more abundant life in Christ Jesus, and with those within that community who are lost.
