Date Added: 2-2010BICC Mission
Bradley Initiative for Church and Community (BICC) exist to unite churches, along with other community organizations, to address the root/systemic causes of the social, economic and cultural issues in Cleveland/Bradley County, Tennessee.
What is BICC?
The Bradley Initiative for Church and Community, is a non-profit Christian community organization that began in 1998. BICC is located in Cleveland, Tennessee.
What does BICC do?
BICC listens to the community and then moves the community to take action. Listening and building relationships provides the structure for the ministry of BICC in the community.
The one-to-one- listening interview is a very simple questionnaire, with open ended questions of their views concerning our community.
Open community forums and focus groups are also utilized to expand the listening scope. Information gathered in the process is used to identify the greatest concerns in our community.
The listening has served as the entrance point for many people in the community to become involved in the work at BICC, and in developing long term viable solutions to the concerns they voiced in the listening interviews.
As a result, we have several projects that are positively impacting our area.
