What does Intentional Compassionate Community look like?

At the Reformed Church of Highland Park Affordable Housing Corporation, we understand that, in order for vulnerable populations to thrive, they must first have a literal and figurative firm foundation in the form of safe and affordable housing, as well as support services that set them on a path of self-sufficiency and peace of mind.  We walk alongside individuals and families to help them achieve this goal.

Global Grace Marketplace – Fair Trade & Handmade for the Holidays!

We invite you to stop in to our store located at 208 Raritan Avenue in Highland Park for gifts that are created from the heart and hands of those who care about high quality craftership.  Our creations are from emerging countries from around the world, as well as right here in town.  Interfaith-RISE Recycled Wood Shop offers several decorative and functional items for inside and outside your home, and you can also find the new book by author Liz Estes, “Global Grace Cafe”, which chronicles the journey from aiding immigrant detainees to the creation of Interfaith-RISE.  And don’t foget the yummy stuff, like fair trade chocolate and coffee – we hope to see you soon!
