Home – MLK-MSC | Building Stronger Communities, Honoring a Legacy
Welcome to MLK-MSC
At MLK-MSC (Martin Luther King Multi-Service Center), we believe that every individual deserves dignity, opportunity, and hope. Inspired by the values and vision of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., our center serves as a hub for empowerment, advocacy, and community-driven solutions.
For decades, MLK-MSC has stood as a place where families, individuals, and neighborhoods can access resources that strengthen lives. From housing assistance to youth development, from food security to health outreach, our programs are built to meet people where they are and help them rise to their fullest potential.
Our Mission
Our mission is rooted in service, equity, and empowerment. MLK-MSC exists to:
-
Provide essential services that meet basic needs.
-
Support long-term growth through education, skills, and advocacy.
-
Build a stronger community where everyone has a voice and a chance to thrive.
Dr. King dreamed of a “Beloved Community” founded on justice, equality, and love. Through our daily work, we strive to bring that dream closer to reality.

-
Emergency shelter services.
