UNI offices continue to be closed during this challenging time. We will respond to your phone messages and emails as quickly as we can.
Our Neighborhoods
Long before the Urban Neighborhood Initiative was even an idea, neighborhood organizations were already hard at work, intent on improving and revitalizing their communities. Our neighborhood partners have been and are essential to UNI’s success.
Our Initiatives
UNI is committed to our three main initiatives central to addressing our neighborhood-identified priority areas of Prosperity, Safety & Health, and Education:
- Vacant to Vibrant – Transforming Vacant Spaces to Vibrant Places
- Building Better Blocks (The Phillips Collective) – A Purpose Built Community
- Kansas City Catalytic Urban Redevelopment (KCCUR)

Our Neighborhoods
Long before Urban Neighborhood Initiative was even an idea, neighborhood organizations were already hard at work, intent on improving and revitalizing the communities where they live. Our neighborhood partners have been, and are essential to, UNI’s success.
Our partners are building community gardens, orchards, and playgrounds, and working on streetscapes, new curbs, and sidewalks. They’re working to decrease crime and close drug houses. They’re developing block leader programs and hosting clean-up and dumpster days.
