About us | Originally built as a settlement house in the early 1900s, Merrick House honors its legacy to create an interconnected community of support. From infant child care, preschool, and youth mentoring to adult education and recreation, we are continually reshaping our programs and services to meet the needs of residents in the Tremont, Clark-Fulton, Stockyards, and Brooklyn Centre neighborhoods. With the recent addition of our “MomsFirst” program, we are able to provide health education and support to pregnant women with the ultimate goal of helping them have a healthy baby in a county that ranks among the nation’s highest for infant mortality rates. Wherever possible, Merrick House advocates for fairness and equality and works with residents to give them a stronger voice on various issues they are facing. We are actively creating change and making a positive impact in our neighborhoods. |
