McCurdy Family Resource Campus
McCurdy Ministries became a Family Resource Campus in 2024 through a grant from the State of New Mexico. This initiative was created to serve as a community hub where families can connect with helpful resources, trusted community partners, state agencies, and one another.
The McCurdy Family Resource Campus is located in the former Cole High School building and is open to any family in the area. Explore the resources we offer, or click the Refer a Family button to have a member of our staff reach out and help connect you with the support you need.

The Light House
We are beyond excited to announce that The Light House Clothing Closet is open in the mission school’s former Teacherage!
The Light House is a place where children and adults of all ages can "shop" for clothing in a way that leaves them with a deep sense of their beloved-ness and value!

Family Navigator
Haley Pippin
Hello My name is Haley Pippin, and I’m proud to serve as a Family Navigator at McCurdy Ministries. I was born and raised in the Española Valley, a place that has always been home and holds a special place in my heart. My journey with McCurdy is deeply personal and generational—it’s more than just where I work; it’s part of my family’s legacy. I attended McCurdy School myself, following in the footsteps of both my father and grandfather, who also walked these same halls. That long-standing connection has given me a deep love and respect for the McCurdy campus and everything it stands for.
Working in the nonprofit field is something I truly enjoy. I’ve always had a strong passion for helping others, and I feel incredibly grateful to be in a position where I can give back to the community that helped shape who I am.
