Some things have changed over the years... the people who we serve, how our programs operate, and even where we we administer them. The one thing that does not change...Our Mission:
To create pathways to success through direct delivery of high quality programs for individuals and families in need in the Richmond area and to be an intermediary organization engaging partners in a coordinated effort to help our clients get the information, referrals and resources they need to move toward self-sufficiency.
Our Vision:
To be the catalyst for transforming the lives of people, particularly children and youth, by helping them move from dependency toward self-sufficiency as quickly as possible.
We look for every opportunity to fulfill our mission and vision in the our everyday activities. Whether it be through Homeless Prevention, Early Childhood Education,the Byrd House Market or any of our other programs, we continue traditions begun years before and start new ones today.
