Description
MLM's work belongs to people all over the Greater Kansas City Area. Anchored by congregations of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, and the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod, a total of more than 100 congregations from 10 denominations support our work. We receive funding from these congregations, from federal, state, and local government programs, and from many local individuals, foundations, and corporations.
A 501(c)(3) nonprofit social service agency, Metro Lutheran Ministry (MLM) helps disadvantaged people of all races, religions and nationalities in the urban areas of Jackson, Clay and Platte Counties in Missouri and Wyandotte and Johnson counties in Kansas. MLM uses a holistic approach with strengths and outcome-based counseling and case management, which guide receptive clients toward greater independence and self-reliance.
