What is Faith in Action?
Hardin County’s Faith in Action (FIA) program was started in 2001 with a start-up grant through the Robert W Johnson Foundation. FIA is a nationwide network of programs that provides volunteer services to others in need. Hardin County’s program focuses on serving persons with mental disabilities, primarily those with mental illness or intellectual disabilities. Volunteers provide group activities and/or one-to-one supports. Hardin County FIA sponsors an annual Christmas project and an annual mental health seminar. Approximately 60 individuals receive supports through Hardin County FIA annually.
