Community Corner
Screening and Discussion of Documentary on Poverty
Neighbor-to-Neighbor is excited to be hosting a viewing and discussion of Sojurners' new documentary film The Line.
About us: Neighbor-to-Neighbor is a coalition of faith-based and community partners working to prevent homelessness of families in the Cockeysville/Timonium area by assisting in the development of skills needed to achieve financial independence.
About "The Line": As part of a broader campaign to bring light to the new faces of poverty and the aftermath of the recession, national Christian non-profit Sojourners has produced a documentary film called The Line. The 30-minute film uncovers the emerging and entrenched faces of poverty in our country — such as the suburban former banker, who now relies on a food pantry; to an aging career fisherman, whose shrimping business has been devastated by the after-effects of Hurricane Katrina and the BP oil spill in the Gulf Coast.
