Strong Communities Begin With You

There are as many ways to help as there are neighbors who need it.

Every neighborhood in Kansas City has people who show up for each other. LINC exists to make that easier, connecting families to the resources and support that help them thrive right where they live. For more than 30 years, that work has depended on people like you.

There’s no single way to get involved with LINC. Some people start by enrolling their child in one of our school-based programs. Others join a Site Council to help shape what their neighborhood needs most. Some come to us looking for work, or looking for help with rent, food, or utility bills. Others give what they can, whether that’s a donation or a few hours of their time.

However you find your way in, you become part of something bigger: a network of neighbors, schools, and community partners working to make Kansas City stronger, one family at a time.

There's a Place for You at LINC

Whether you’re looking for support, ready to give back, or want to join our team, there’s a way to be part of stronger families across Kansas City.
