Show Notes
Local faith groups in Spokane, including Maranatha Evangelical Church, Jasmine Ministries, and Creole Resources, have been instrumental in supporting the Haitian community during challenging times. These organizations provide essential services such as jobs, housing, and other necessities, especially after facing increased barriers under the Trump administration. The groups have built a network to help families settle in, offering English classes, job training, music lessons, and housing programs. They also run an orphanage in Haiti for forty street kids. Leaders like Pastor Luc Jasmin Junior and his daughter Katia Jasmin, who founded Creole Resources, are driven by faith and a commitment to their neighbors. The community faces uncertainty due to the Temporary Protected Status, which has led to job loss and employment hesitancy. The biggest ask remains a clear path to legal status, allowing everyone to work openly without fear.
