Building People Who Build Communities

WE ARE PRISM

OUR MISSION

OUR HISTORY

Prism EDC grew out of Parklawn Assembly of God Church, a church that has been in existence for over 100 years in Milwaukee and that continues to be dedicated to serving the Sherman Park Community.

Prism Economic Development Corporation exists to disrupt poverty by producing economic growth and human flourishing beginning in the Sherman Park community.

OUR VISION

Prism EDC aspires to change lives and communities through collaborations, services, and opportunities that help them achieve greater self-sufficiency while experiencing dignity and hope.

At Prism Economic Development Corporation, we believe in the dignity of every human being, created in the image of God and the role of meaningful work. We want to be a catalyst for positive change by helping people find meaningful, life-sustaining employment, whether with a local employer or as an entrepreneur.
