Vision
Our vision is to be the catalyst for transforming the lives of people, particularly children and youth, by helping them move from dependency toward self-sufficiency as quickly as possible.
Mission
Our mission is to create pathways to success through direct delivery of high quality programs for individuals and families in need in the Richmond area, and to be an intermediary organization, engaging partners in a coordinated effort to help our clients get the information, referrals and resources they need to move toward self-sufficiency.
William Byrd Community House (WBCH) works with the entire community to create pathways to success for individuals and families. We approach our work by looking at the assets that people possess and build on that capital to address needs. This philosophy changes the way we view those that come through our doors, call us, write us, email us and see us outside of William Byrd. WBCH has a vision to transform the lives of people. We start by creating an environment of positivity, hope and safety by providing a strong message that every person has gifts and talents and these things are assets to us all.
WBCH works in the community with other partner organizations to coordinate services, form partnerships, build capacity of the nonprofit sector and to move our community beyond what we see on the front page of the papers and into a vision of transformation.
