Sarah Junkin Woodward is traveling around the U.S. to share the work of the Jubilee House Community, a nonprofit she helped form in 1979 in Statesville, North Carolina, which developed responses to meet the needs of the homeless and of battered women for more than a decade. Working for the last 32 years in Nicaragua, under the project name of Center for Development in Central America, the JHC-CDCA's goal has always been to help the poor accomplish what they see as their priorities: sustainable economic development, organic agriculture, health care, and education.
Now, in 2026, with the world in chaos, Sarah's U.S. tour is focused on educating those in the global north on the impressive realities developing within Nicaragua where both the social and political will are aimed at helping the majority of the population, the poorest of the poor.
