ECHO provides a full range of services that restore individual and family self-sufficiency and feelings of self-worth. ECHO offers Leon County residents and the homeless professional services through programs providing emergency relief, job skill development, and family sustainability. Our clients are served in one of three areas: Emergency Resources, Furniture, and Family Services. With a small staff, and a large volunteer base, our programs are designed to assist people in their efforts to become independent, productive, and stable. We believe that encouragement, planning, and hope will be the impetus for lasting change. With opportunities and incentives, those who live under the burden of poverty will pull themselves from its grip and lead fuller and more productive lives.
