LINC

Communities grow stronger when people come together with a shared commitment to children and families. 👨‍👩‍👦

Members of the LINC team are attending Institute for Educational Leadership's 2026 National Community Schools and Family Engagement Conference in Long Beach, where educators, advocates, and community leaders from across the country are collaborating around one shared belief: Every child deserves the opportunity to thrive. 🙌

At LINC, this work is at the heart of our mission. Conferences like this allow us to learn, connect, and bring back new ideas that help strengthen the support systems surrounding students and families across Kansas City.

Together, we continue building brighter futures through partnership, connection, and community. 🫶

At LINC, we believe strong communities are built when neighbors come together!

That’s why we’re excited to help spread the word about the Center for Neighborhoods 10th anniversary block party this Saturday.

This free, family-friendly event features food, music, games, and activities for all ages. Stop by and join the celebration! 🎉

📅 Saturday, May 30
⏰ 12-3 p.m. PM
📍 Anita B. Gorman Conservation Discovery Center
4750 Troost Ave, Kansas City, MO

Today was a celebration of what’s possible when communities invest in one another. 🎉

LINC was proud to join community leaders, families, and neighbors in celebrating the grand opening of United Market - Linwood, which is bringing fresh, affordable grocery options back to Prospect and creating a valuable new resource for local families.

We were especially excited to see the LINC Mighty Wild Eagles help bring energy and excitement to the event alongside other talented local performers. 🥁✨

At LINC, we know strong communities are built through more than what happens during the school day. Access to healthy food, safe spaces, meaningful partnerships, and opportunities for families all contribute to helping young people thrive.

Congratulations to and owner Anthony Estrada on this exciting milestone for Kansas City!
