Our Impact
The Community We Serve
We serve the entire KC area but prioritize the Troost Ave. corridor, especially the neighborhoods east of Troost, which have the highest concentration of crime, poverty, and trauma and the least access to resources. We work daily to advocate for our neighbors in need and strive to create meaningful community connections that can lead to racial and economic reconciliation in our city.
Our “Ultimate Impact”
Individuals engaged with Reconciliation Services, living both east and west of Troost Avenue, increase their personal well-being, advocate for their families and neighbors, and reveal the community’s hidden strength.
Client Guest Demographics
Theory of Change
We have an innovative approach to community healing that employs engagement strategies with neighbors from different racial and socioeconomic backgrounds that lead to meaningful participation in community-led works, sharing resources, reduced symptoms of trauma, increased trauma-awareness, increased skills and social connections, and reduced social isolation, ultimately leading to RECONCILIATION between families and communities.
