Working with Faith and Community Leaders
The Franklin County team worked closely with a well-known community organization in Columbus – Ministries 4 Movement – to recruit and involve faith and community stakeholder voices in the engagement. Pastor Frederick LaMarr of the Family Missionary Baptist Church in Columbus served as the convenor of the Ministries 4 Movement organization and worked as a close partner with the team to identify and invite community leaders.
