What it says it does
Reach America exists to equip disciples of Christ to reach America. We are associated with the Sower Christian Bookstore, which is the only Christian bookstore in North Idaho - we rent them our building. We provide Christ-centered Mentoring Programs for individuals and families. Our primary target groups are men and their families who come out of drug rehab or prison. We offer weekly Christ-centered meetings to provide a support system to those in the mentoring program. We offer transitional housing in a rental property for men that need a temporary place to stay when leaving drug rehab or prison. We conduct retreat experiences for individuals and families. We provide mentor training. We post highway billboard signs to share Jesus through Bible verses.
