North Raleigh Ministries opened in March 2004 as North Hills Crisis Center, at 5001 Six Forks Road.  North Raleigh Ministries is a collaborative effort of clubs, businesses, churches and individuals offering a helping hand to our neighbors in crisis.  North Raleigh Ministries (NRM) is comprised of three ministries:  The Crisis Center (offering financial assistance for people during crisis), a client's choice Food Pantry, and a Thrift Shoppe (selling goods/items to generate revenue to sustain all NRM ministries).  Our Crisis Ministry reaches out to children and families in crisis through intervention programs including giveaways (of clothes, school supplies, holiday food baskets, Christmas toys and stockings, Easter baskets, etc), the food pantry, and developing daycare and preschool scholarships.  NRM provides direct dollars to families in crisis (through payments to utility companies, mortgage or rental companies, or pharmacies) assisting them through a difficult situation while preserving their dignity and self respect.  NRM strives to help clients overcome their temporary challenges and retuirn to their previously stable and productive lives.
