At the MLK Center, everyone has the opportunity to learn, play, grow, and find peace. By embracing the teachings and philosophies of civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the MLK Center provides vital individual skills and family resources that allow residents in the Mid-North neighborhoods of Indianapolis to grow and enhance their lives. Their approach helps people of all ages find—and remain on—their own paths to success and stability. Dr. King believed that conflicts can be resolved peacefully. In a committed Beloved Community, conflict ends with reconciliation of adversaries cooperating in a spirit of mutual respect and goodwill. The MLK Center works to make this possible in our culture.
The mission is rooted in the values they have established as a neighborhood leader of individual and family support for their residents: To create a meaningful impact on the lives of those they serve, through quality, multi-generational programs that build community, invest in youth, empower families, advocate for their neighbors, and provide a peaceful space to connect.
