Our Vision and Mission
WICM is committed to building an inner city community where individuals, children and families have greater opportunities to break the cycle of poverty.
We nurture personal strengths and lasting relationships with individuals, children, and their families through community programming, enhanced learning and employment opportunities in a safe and supportive environment.
Our Programs
Centered around literacy, nutrition and overall wellbeing, the Flora House Afterschool Program and Summer Day Camp provide opportunities for children ages 6-13 to receive positive mentorship while taking part in field trips and programming that expand their knowledge of the community and opportunities that await them. Our participants from the inner-city are engaged in a safe and inclusive environment enjoying activities including art programming, parkland adventures, literacy, and traditional teachings.
Working under the supportive housing model, the First Steps to Independence Program provides a safe living environment for adults experiencing poverty to pursue their goals, develop life skills, and achieve confident independence. With support from our team of professionals in transitional living, participants of the program will develop a solid foundation from which they can develop and realize personal goals and dreams and achieve a life of independence.
