We’re not a resettlement agency, and we’re not just another affordable housing nonprofit. Resettlement agencies provide essential services but they rely on others to provide housing. That’s where we come in.

Mercy in the City is the only organization in the Kansas City metro focused on developing affordable housing specifically for immigrant and refugee families. 

The mission of Mercy in the City is to create quality and sustainable affordable housing for immigrants and refugees, starting in Kansas City.

Mercy in the City hopes to see a world where immigrants and refugees are welcomed in communities. We desire to see communities become more than just neighbors; they become friends.

1. Extend Mercy by putting kindness and compassion in action.

2. Create Hope for a better future through sustainable housing and life-skills training.

3. Give Dignity by letting all we encounter know their worth.

4. Establish Family by providing a sense of belonging to all and helping families get settled into their new home.

5. Provide Work by putting our hands to the work of mercy and helping others do the same.
