Presenter: Corey
Miller
The
Rev. Dr. Corey Miller will speak to us about Crisis Control Ministry (CCM) of
which he has been Director of Philanthropy since 2010.
Crisis
Control Ministry was founded in 1973 by religious congregations in
Winston-Salem to offer coordinated financial assistance to people in need. CCM
aims to treat anyone in a financial crisis with respect and compassion, and to
offer them targeted short-term emergency assistance. CCM is the largest
emergency assistance provider in Forsyth County, serving over 23,000 people in
FY 2013.
Corey met CCM’s Executive Director,
Margaret Elliott, in 2002, and got to know CCM through a strong church
partnership. This ministry resonated deeply with him, and he was excited to
join the staff. His role is to coordinate the growth of donor relationships.
Corey is a native of Winston-Salem
and graduated from R.J. Reynolds High School. He is an ordained United
Methodist minister, and currently serves in an ecumenical role at St. Paul’s
Episcopal Church. Previously, he served in two local United Methodist
congregations in Forsyth County. Before coming to Crisis Control, he was the
Executive Director of Smart Start of Davie County. He has been married for over
twenty years to his wife Beth and has a teenage son named Caldwell.
