In this episode of Trust Company Talks, Bill Noble and Burke Koonce welcome Trina Fullard, CEO of Charlotte Rescue Mission, to share her inspiring journey and the impactful work of the organization.

Trina describes how the mission, founded in 1938 by nine Charlotte businessmen, has evolved into a vital resource for individuals facing homelessness and addiction. Offering a four-month residential recovery program, Charlotte Rescue Mission equips men and women with the tools they need for a fresh start. Programs like Rebound for men and Dove's Nest for women focus on healing, education and future readiness, with options for mothers to bring their children along on their recovery journey.

During the conversation, Trina highlights:

• How the mission expanded its reach during the pandemic to include long-term support through case management and recovery living.
• The role of partnerships with several community organizations like in providing financial literacy and wellness opportunities.
• The importance of programs that help graduates build essential skills for a successful transition after recovery.

Trina also shares her vision for the future, including creating outdoor spaces for reflection and growth and expanding programs for families.
