Incubate Neighborhood Center (INC) is committed to developing and housing a functional ecosystem of community partners that will provide connected resources to disconnected youth and adults in Lincoln Park. The goal is to create a community hub, a place that Lincoln Park residents can get all their services in one location.
The City of Ft. Pierce is one of the poorest cities in the State of Florida and home to the Lincoln Park Community, where nearly 80% of its residents struggle to make ends meet. These startling statistics have not deterred the organization; instead, it has solidified their resolve to take the neediest of an impoverished community and work alongside these individuals and families to help them break the cycle of poverty through the organization’s multi-generational hand-up approach. This strategy was designed to revitalize poor communities and create a pathway to build wealth for its residents. INC’s core focus areas are entrepreneurship, workforce development, affordable housing, and social injustices. INC facilitates its mission through its 3 core programs and workshops which were developed as a map to help families navigate the road to self-sufficiency. Each unique program is customized to meet the client where they are in that journey.
We've found that intersectionality plays a key role in the outcome of communities in distress. What is intersectionality? Intersectionality is the interconnected nature of social categorizations such as race, class, and gender as they apply to a given individual or group, regarded as creating overlapping and interdependent systems of discrimination or disadvantage. Because of this, America’s most distressed neighborhoods are often rooted in systematic and institutionalized forms of racism and intentional disinvestment, and its residents having to overcome extreme barriers of poverty and social injustices to reach success.
