- Emergency Assistance Program:
Our parish outreach ministry added a new program in January 2021 to help those in our community who are experiencing financial struggles. We received a grant from St. Mary’s Legacy Foundation that allowed us to establish the Emergency Assistance Program (EAP) which helps with utility bills. This program has filled a gap in our community for people who need a one-time assist with their utility bills. The need for this program goes beyond the money that is provided by the grant. The need for this type of program in Johnson County is great and we hope it continues with the assistance from private donors. As members of St. Anthony of Padua parish, we are all contributors to all the programs that SAB offers. Thank you for your continued support – St. Anthony’s is making a difference in Johnson County.
Referral to the EAP is generally handled through Neighborhood Service Center at (423) 246-6180.
