For more than 10 years I have worked as a Non-profit Organizer and Volunteer for Rape Crisis, Domestic Violence Advocate, Red Cross, The Helene Foundation, Guardian ad Litem, Long Term Care Ombudsman, Crisis Hotline, Medical Responder and an Education Guardian/Advocate for at-risk high school students.

Conservation Network, Cumberland County Local Re-Entry Council, Association of Professional Women, Black Career Women's Organization, Christian Women Counselors and a Debt Management Counselor. 
 
As a Religious Program Specialist for the United States Navy I learned the true meaning of honor, courage, and commitment. I was honorably discharged with a priceless education in leadership and team building skills, and an understanding of the importance of paying attention to detail. 
 
Currently, I am the Site Supervisor for Cumberland County Bridge Housing, a program for homeless/at risk of homelessness men and women who have a diagnosis of mental health and/or substance use disorder and interim Site Supervisor for Durham County Coming Home, a similar program for the formerly incarcerated. 
 
My passion is assisting others in building their dreams and creating an environment of hope for those that have none.
 
Jeffrey Rawlings
 

Jeffrey Rawlings, a 30-year resident of Wake county, NC, is a nationally recognized Rapid Re-Housing counselor at Johnston Lee Harnett Community Action. He currently serves as Coordinated Entry lead for Region 7 of the N.C. BoS CoC. He has worked in the nonprofit field for 13 years. His expertise in human relations, communication and motivation are primarily derived from his life experience and his own personal journey from homelessness to housing counselor and homelessness advocate. His goal of ending homelessness is important because he remembers the shame, the despair, and the loneliness of having no place to call home. He feels no one, no matter the circumstance, should ever know that agony.
