EMMANUEL LIFE MANAGEMENT CENTER

Black-led community building, youth empowerment and purpose.

MEETING PEOPLE AT THEIR POINT OF NEED- we center relationship-building, and welcome each person who walks through our doors wherever they are at. We prioritize problem-solving, answering questions, and meeting clients’ needs with patience, kindness, and care. A SAFE SPACE FOR OUR COMMUNITIES- We offers a judgment-free zone to everyone, across identities and experiences; we have zero tolerance for prejudice or bias in our space. Our passionate and dedicated team fosters a friendly environment where everyone in our community can feel at home.​​ HOLISTIC APPROACH TO COMMUNITY BUILDING- we know that responding to the needs of our community goes far beyond addressing food insecurity. We believe that connecting people with the resources they need now — whether that be housing, financial, health, social, or legal — can be an empowering process on the road to liberation. PRIORITIZING BLACK COMMUNITIES- we work to consistently and creatively address the issues that specifically impact Black youth, seniors, and families. We strive to support our community members to live into their full potential and dreams. BUILDING AND RE-BUILDING RESILIENT COMMUNITIES- we lead with hope and possibility for the future. Our programs are designed to fill gaps and build bridges by centering strength, resilience, and creativity. We tap into learnings across generations to sustainably strengthen our organization and the diverse communities we serve.
