In an effort to better serve our community, Central Baptist is happy to make available this list of helping agencies for Burlington County Residents. The bulk of this information originated in a resource file found on the Rowan College of Burlington Country Website. A few corrections, and the addition of one food pantry, were made to the original document.
If you are in need or in crisis in Burlington County, or know someone who is, these resources are available to you.
