The organization now known as Urban Alliance began in 1999. We saw significant barriers between a city rich in resources and individuals so desperately in need of those resources. These individuals were struggling to hold out the belief that change was possible. They were becoming faceless, voiceless, and increasingly hopeless. Beginning as a small group of volunteers, we ventured out into the community, showing consistency, asking and listening, building trust, and growing relationships with individuals that the world seemed all too willing to ignore. What we heard then and to this day has formed the basis of how we work toward transformation in and around Kalamazoo and beyond.
