Mission Statement
We bring people together to imagine and then passionately create empowered neighborhoods.
Description
York XL's EPIC Vision understands urban challenges, from 1619's slavery aftermath to discrimination against Black and Brown communities. Yet, their resilience shines. We champion resident-led change, prioritizing human value, targeting systemic barriers, and cultivating enduring community programs.
Following EPIC tenets of E mpowerment, P articipation, I nnovation, and C ommunity, we align with community desires from start to finish. Trust has been our foundation, earned through deep neighborhood ties over five years. We now pivot to becoming a pivotal neighborhood catalyst. Our EPIC Vision champions a neighborhood emphasizing accessibility, inclusivity, and empowerment. Our notable ventures are EPIC Gardens with QR learning, Broad Street Greenway Activation, The EPIC Gardens entrepreneurial push, and YRK Rising Monthly Gatherings for ongoing dialogue.
