Crisis Response Care
CRC impacts communities through training and supporting individuals who serve communities in times of crisis.
Year-End Report & Appeal
Thank you for your faithful support of the mission of Crisis Response Care (CRC). Because of your prayers, encouragement, and generosity over the years, lives have been touched during some of their most difficult moments.
Earlier this year, following K-LOVE’s relocation of its headquarters from California to Nashville, K-LOVE leadership made the decision to transition Crisis Response Care into an independent 501(c)(3) organization and asked me to serve as its director. After retiring from The Salvation Army following 30 years in disaster and crisis management, I sensed God clearly leading me into this next season—one focused on equipping churches and communities to provide emotional and spiritual care to people facing crisis, trauma, and loss.
This transition has been a significant step of faith, but it has also been an incredible opportunity. Through CRC, we are now providing both training and direct care to leaders and first responders who are themselves struggling under the weight of crisis. By partnering the CRC ministry with the Institute for Compassionate Care (ICC), a very small team has been able to accomplish an extraordinary amount this year.
How You Can Help
First and foremost, we ask that you continue to pray for the CRC mission and ministry as we serve those in crisis and those who care for them. The demand for our training and crisis care continues to grow, but financial support has not yet caught up with that need.
If you are able to make a year-end gift, or if you know someone who may be willing to partner financially with Crisis Response Care in 2026, your support would make a meaningful and lasting difference. As we plan our training schedule and outreach for the coming year, the level of funding we receive will directly determine how many individuals and communities we are able to serve.
Thank you for standing with us as we respond to crisis with compassion, faith, and hope. Donations may be made securely online at www.crisisresponse.org or by mailing a check directly to
