WHY BECOME A HOST HOME PROVIDER?
Read the responses below from our Host Home Providers here at Creative Community Services!
“I see the needs for displaced individual in the community and would love to help with me having a space for someone and helping them with love and care they need, treating them as a part of my family. I Iove working with children.”
“I get satisfaction in making a difference in someone’s life.”
“I wanted to do something that lined up with my calling to serve others. This opportunity also allowed me to work from home and help my family.”
“It is purely from a humanitarian point of view and my spouse happen to be a nurse and she was involved in humanitarian situations as a nurse. Our experience so far is very satisfying and could not be any better. We are glad to be a part of it. Our resident now is considered to be part of our family.”
“Creative Community Services is amazing. We considered several different agencies. I’m glad we chose Creative Community Services!”

CREATIVE COMMUNITY SERVICES CELEBRATES BLACK HISTORY MONTH
Creative Community Services celebrated Black History Month by wearing the color of the Pan-African Flag. The Pan-African flag was created in 1920 to symbolize black liberation and unity in the United States. Red represents the blood that unites all people of Black African ancestry and the many sacrifices. Black is for black people.
Green represents the growth and rich lands of Africa.
