All in to build a movement for ed and econ equity in urban LA via @KidCityHopePl -- and now, green space too at Kid City's Breezeway The Los Angeles United Methodist Urban Foundation is committed to "Initiating and Supporting Signs of Hope for the City" by empowering people, achieving social justice and economic development and promoting the well being of communities. Kid City Hope Place is the Foundation's flagship program. It is a strictly secular, non-religious program that helps low-income and youth of color to develop personally, academically, and professionally within a nurturing community. At Kid City teens and young adults find their voice, share their stories, and discover their ability to advocate for themselves and their communities. Programs in college access and persistence, career readiness, and music address educational inequity and severe economic hardship among the communities we serve.
