LOVE NEVER FAILS COVID(19) - UPDATE

Dear Love Never Fails Community,

At Love Never Fails (LNF), we are closely monitoring and taking precautions to limit exposure and slow the transmission of the Coronavirus (COVID-19). We can all agree that these are unprecedented times, but we are hopeful for the future.

LNF is dedicated to our mission and continuing to provide housing and services to the residents in the I AM House.

In compliance with the “Shelter in Place” order that is now implemented throughout California, we are designated as an Essential Business that provides food, shelter, social services, and other necessities of life.

It is such an honor to serve others at this critical time of need. We have implemented a plan to keep our staff, clients and our survivors safe and healthy.

During this time our safe houses will remain open. However, for the safety of our clients and staff our thrift store, career center, and IT lab will be closed.

Our Cisco Networking Academy is continuing to offer remote classes for those who want to pursue a career in IT. We are encouraging all we serve to use this time to their advantage and make as much progress on their certifications as possible.
The health and safety of our staff, clients, and residents is our main priority and we are following all recommendations from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and local county agencies. “Errand Kits” have been given to all staff members which include gloves, and antibacterial hand wipes to be used while out in the community.

We have also implemented the following procedures:

  • Thrift Store – Love Never Fails Community Store will begin posting many items online to continue our store operations virtually at https://www.facebook.com/1513665428937305/.
    We value and appreciate the support of our community members/partners.
     

  • Donations – Our food pantry is full but we are in need of financial support for incremental health and safety supplies and to keep our operation running while we are unable to continue our standard fundraising activities. You can support us by becoming a member or giving a one-time donation here: loveneverfailsus.com/donate
     

  • Outreach – For the next month we will utilize a virtual outreach format and contact people with posted online ads to offer resources, encouragement, and prayer. If you'd like to participate reach out to vanessa@loveneverfailsus.com
     

  • Our Housing Sites – Our safe houses will be cleaned and sanitized each day. Staff will monitor the health and well-being of our program members. We have a plan in place that allows us to quarantine our program members in their own room should they test positive for the virus. The staff has been properly trained and will take anyone displaying symptoms to the hospital.

Resources and Guidelines for our communities

At Love Never Fails, we believe that we are one body with many parts.
(1 Corinthians 12:12-27)

As such our prayers are going to you, to those infected by the virus, to those who are further displaced from housing, work, and education as a result of this outbreak and for survivors of human trafficking who are forced to engage with infected buyers and in unsanitary places.

We will continue to monitor the ever-changing dynamics of Coronavirus COVID-19 and keep everyone informed of updates with our organization.
