FAMILY MATTERS' MISSION

In the city and the nation, racism, violence, and oppression still remain, and it could be argued that segregation and inequity are even more evident today. In its 32 years, Family Matters has also seen the

power of relationships, education, and leadership development in dissolving barriers and developing potentials. Through our experience with peace building communication and youth mentoring, we have

witnessed how individual lives, families, and communities can be changed. This is why we continue to do the work we do, now through the targeted lens of eliminating racism and oppression.
