Our mission is to build a community that empowers individuals and families to break the cycle of poverty and move to a place of more abundant lives. Uplift People of Elk Grove uses a comprehensive and holistic approach which focuses on avoiding homelessness, continuing education, managing finances, securing employment, self-evaluating, recognizing the impact of trauma, and moving off public assistance.
Uplift is built on the philosophy that all participants will gain greatly from their experience and that we all benefit from the support and encouragement of others. We bridge the cultural and socioeconomic class lines that often divide us. We work to challenge preconceived beliefs about poverty. We recognize that poverty does not just exist financially but can also present itself in a physical, cognitive, emotional, social, relational, or spiritual form.
