About
Our Mission & Values: Milwaukee Community Crossroads cultivates a vibrant Milwaukee community by helping individuals, families, and neighborhoods access basic needs, overcome barriers, and connect to opportunities.
Community- We are stronger with the commitment of the diverse people, partners, and systems of our community, making opportunities grow.
Collaboration- We are empowered when we work closely together with many partners and people to make communities thrive.
Adaptability- We are effective when we continuously improve in response to the needs and strengths of our communities.
Endurance- We are committed to delivering reliable, high-quality programs led by dedicated individuals because consistency matters.
Foundation- Our foundation is in the communities we serve. Individuals who deeply understand the communities we serve provide invaluable leadership to the broader MCC community.
Our Focus Areas: To build a multifaceted, thriving community, we offer an all-encompassing range of programs with the breadth and depth to help all types of people. After all, a community is built one person at a time.
Youth Development- We can’t build community without a future to continue the building. Our programs for young people encourage well-rounded learning and growth.
Violence Prevention- To stop a threat as strong and pervasive as violence requires wide-ranging solutions, like our host of programs aimed at preventing, mediating, and eradicating violent conflict.
Community Building-This program, with a holistic view of community, can see opportunities for development and revitalization that a more focused view could miss. Then, we take action.
Housing- It’s not a community without a place to live. Whether it’s building new homes, improving old homes, or providing access to affordable homes, we have a program for it.
Basic Needs- Health. Safety. Food. Without the building blocks of life, the community won’t grow. These programs ensure those basics are covered.
Older Adult Wellness- Older adults deserve to have the opportunity for their golden years to shine. Our Older Adults Programs offer the opportunity for support, connection, and healthy living.
