Stronger Together in Central East Florida

From the booming Space Coast to the quiet, proud towns inland, the Central East region tells a story of two realities. While some communities thrive, others are left behind – unemployment in Okeechobee is nearly double the state average.

Better Together steps in with host families, mentors, and job fairs to support parents and children.

Voices of our church partners

“The church I serve is blessed to be a ministry partner with Better Together. Many lack a network to help get them over life’s rough spots. My wife and I were blessed to host two children while their parents used the breathing room to make needed changes. A wise soul once said: “Be the change you want to see in the world.” Jesus said: “Whatever you did for one of the least of these… you did for me” (Matthew 25:40). Think about that.”

Pastor Jerry Milner

Roseland Global Methodist Church

“Through the better jobs and better families programs we have connected those in our community who are struggling with the love and support that they need to rise above their circumstances. They have found the power of Jesus’s people doing the transformational work of the Gospel.”
