OVERVIEW
Noble Steps CHI was established in 2018 with a vision to support disenfranchised communities by way of food security, community development, social engagement, trauma relief and educational support. Our goal is to affect the divide in resources available to under-served communities. We have effectively created a supportive platform that is culturally responsive and empowering simply, because we believe in people.

After graduating college she began a career as an advocate for Criminal Justice Reform to support the end of mass incarceration of minorities. During this time she was also employed as an educator, community advocate and motivational speaker. Through these experiences she noticed the many gaps and inequalities that were plaguing the world around her.

In 2018, determined to create a platform to help fill the gaps that were affecting various communities, she birthed Noble Steps CHI, a 501(C)(3) charitable organization. A platform with a clear vision to support disenfranchised communities by way of, volunteerism, social emotional learning, business and home ownership, job training in addition to, mindfulness and educational tools.
