East End Cooperative Ministry

About East End Cooperative Ministry

East End Cooperative Ministry (EECM) was founded in 1970 as a collective response to changes in the community, born when the leaders of 18 local faith communities recognized that the troubles of the community were too great for any one of them to address alone. Starting with interracial breakfasts for Peabody High School students, EECM’s services have expanded as the needs of the community have dictated.

For many of the individuals it serves, EECM provides the necessities of life: a hot meal, a safe, place to sleep, food for the family. For others, it is a place to regain strength after a hospital stay, a support system to work toward recovery, or one-on-one help to change life for the better. The three main areas of service are: the Community Nutrition Program, the Children and Youth Programs and the IMPACTS (Individuals Making Progress and Change Towards Self Sufficiency) program.
