Father's Table
The Father’s Table began in 1968 at First Baptist Church on Washington Street in High Point. We currently serve three meals a day, six days a week, and breakfast and dinner on Sunday, to the homeless and less fortunate in High Point. There are no stipulations as to who is served as we truly offer an “open door” to those who are hungry. Over 5,000 meals per month are donated, prepared, and served by local churches, organizations, businesses, and community volunteers. The Father's Table makes it possible for those in need including men, women, and children of all ages, to receive a nutritious meal. Breakfast 8-9 am, Lunch 12-1 pm, Dinner 6-7 pm (to go boxes only during covid-19)

How we listen
Seeking feedback from people served makes programs more responsive and effective. Here’s how this organization is listening.
-
Who are the people you serve with your mission?
Those who are homeless, underserved, in poverty, and the hungry.
-
How is your organization using feedback from the people you serve?
To identify where we are less inclusive or equitable across demographic groups, To strengthen relationships with the people we serve, To understand people's needs and how we can help them achieve their goals
-
What significant change resulted from feedback?
We started a new program, a free clinic. The clinic was started because many of our clients are not eligible for state ran insurance programs but also cannot pay for their own insurance. This allows them to get basic medications and care for free. Also due to Covid doctors were backed up and could not get in to get medications.
-
Which of the following feedback practices does your organization routinely carry out?
We take steps to ensure people feel comfortable being honest with us, We look for patterns in feedback based on people’s interactions with us (e.g., site, frequency of service, etc.), We act on the feedback we receive
-
What challenges does the organization face when collecting feedback?
It is difficult to get the people we serve to respond to requests for feedback
