Mel Trotter Ministries (MTM) partnered with Rockford on a major facility renovation to transform their approach to assisting those experiencing homelessness in Grand Rapids. Rockford converted shared, dormitory-style rooms with gang showers to individual, semi-private suites to provide a more private experience. In addition to the renovation work performed in an occupied space, Rockford also added a third floor to the building.
This renovation supports the foundation for MTM’s new programming, which is designed to better support guests as they endeavor to leave homelessness forever.
Efforts will continue throughout 2023 as additional phases are completed.
"The Rockford team was challenged with ever-changing conditions and unknowns regarding construction and renovation work at Mel Trotter Ministries. Each took it on with their very best effort, stretching their skills to the max – often well above the call of duty. This project has significantly improved and changed the heart of the Mel Trotter organization."
