Urban Impact

The mission of Urban Impact is to transform the Central City of New Orleans through spiritual development, Christian community development and strategic partnerships.

Spiritual development is accomplished through various youth Bible studies, discipleship relationships and affiliation with Castle Rock Community Church.  The gospel of Jesus Christ is intertwined throughout.

Christian community development has grown into Urban Impact Leadership Academy, a small private Christian school.  Community development also includes financial education classes, felt needs assessments, job training and homeownership assistance.

Strategic partnerships ensures that Urban Impact are providing a holistic approach to creating a neighborhood where kids can ride their bikes.  They partner with groups in and outside of New Orleans.
