CLAY SAFETYNET

The Clay SafetyNet was founded in 2003 as the Mercy Network of Clay County. This dedicated group of faith-based, nonprofit and local government organizations met monthly to share resources and avoid duplication of services. In 2010 a crisis arose when there was no housing in Clay County for families who lost their homes due to foreclosure. The members of The Mercy Network took on the project of establishing housing for these displaced families... The Clay SafetyNet Alliance is a network of Clay County nonprofit, faith-based and local government agencies which bring services and support to the county's 200,000 residents. Not only is this network a safety-net of social services, but recently it merged with Shaping Clay, which is a network of enrichment programs in the community. There are over 140 nonprofits that file taxes and use a Clay County address for their filing.
