Because every child deserves a full stomach and a fair start.
At SOAR, we believe that no child should go hungry. Our Food Program is designed to support children and families in our community who are facing food insecurity. By providing nutritious meals and snacks, we’re not only helping to meet a basic need — we’re also fostering health, stability, and hope for the future.
Whether it’s through school partnerships, after-school programs, or family outreach, this initiative ensures that children have consistent access to food in safe, welcoming environments. Our team, supported by dedicated volunteers and community partners, works diligently to prepare and distribute high-quality meals with care and compassion.

As part of our Addictions Recovery Program, we offer professional counseling services tailored to support individuals on their journey to healing and wholeness. These services are provided through and for those involved in the program—whether you are currently in recovery, supporting someone who is, or navigating life after addiction.
Our trained counselors bring both professional expertise and lived experience, creating a safe, judgment-free space where individuals can process trauma, build resilience, and develop healthy coping strategies. Through one-on-one sessions, group support, and faith-based encouragement, our goal is to walk alongside each person with care, hope, and guidance.
You don’t have to face recovery alone—we’re here to support you every step of the way.
