Celebrating 100 years of service in 2022. The MLK Community Center promotes health, fights hunger, supports families, educates kids and engages seniors. The MLK Center builds community.
I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture of their minds, and dignity, equality, and freedom for their spirits.

My experiences at the MLK Community Center have given me emotional stability. I know, I really know, it will be okay. I've gotten stronger because of the support I've received from the Center.
The MLK Community Center was there when I lost my job and helped me feed my family. I am once again employed and thankful for the MLK.
