York XL is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization working at the cutting edge of neighborhood engagement, empowerment, and development.In everything we do, we work to: + reduce barriers to empowerment + build platforms people can use to build resilient neighborhoods, and + earn and continuing to deserve the trust of the neighborhoods in which we work.Our neighborhood engagement strategy is called EPIC, a platform for empowerment, healing, and unity.EPIC brings together residents of disenfranchised neighborhoods and organizations that seek to better serve them so that they can together, build trust and create a joint vision for creating neighborhoods that allow people to live healthy and successful lives. Using a two-pronged approach, Epic simultaneously:1. Challenges neighborhoods residents to work towards their own empowerment using the skills they already have to improve themselves and their neighborhoods; and 2. Creates a space for diverse organizations to plan and measure initiatives that take into account the lived experiences and priorities of the neighborhood residents they seek to serve.Guided by the Collective of Neighborhood Originals, a group of creative leaders, the community and the organizations create a unified plan that coordinates strategies, programs, and initiatives to support empowered neighborhoods.
