Description
PRC COMPASSION is an inter-denominational cooperative network of more than 500 churches and ministries that formed in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita from around the nation and world networked to address community needs, distribute relief, and to provide aid to the devastated regions along the gulf south. The organization is an outgrowth of Louisiana Family Forum’s Pastors Resource Council. Louisiana Family Forum was established in 1998 as a statewide non-profit working to promote traditional family values through education, networking, research and communication. In 2004, LFF passed a state constitutional amendment to protect traditional marriage.
In the face of crisis, the leadership of the Pastors Resource Council realized that they had been provided a most important and unprecedented opportunity - “To Serve Our Neighbors.” These leaders expanded on the networked groundwork that had already been laid by LFF and determined to make a difference in the lives of the millions of people affected by the storms. Since that time, the mission has been to coordinate local, state, and national, faith-based community organizations to meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of those impacted by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
The PRC COMPASSION team has fully engaged the tasks of Rescue (providing temporary shelters after the storms’ devastation); Relief (supplying food/water, facilitating medical assistance, providing various heavy equipment, directing volunteers to various locations, providing chaplains/counselors to affected evacuees); Relocation (connecting evacuees with churches willing to assist them); and Restoration (directing clean-up and construction crews for removal of debris).
