Its primary mission is to serve as a community service and outreach organization with special emphasis on youth and family programs that will assist in the enhancement of their quality of life * mentally, physically, and spiritually. Thereby, families with children in the Cahokia area will improve their quality of life in their community. We do this by focusing on programs and activities which encourage parents, children, and community members to come together to develop caring and respectful relations, positive and responsible attitudes, and productive skills. The long term goal of new direction is simple, yet fills a critical need of the people served: to empower residents to take responsibility for their quality of community life, and to promote the well-being of children, parents, families and community members. New Direction will focus on the development of the whole child. In order to do this, we look at the cognitive, emotional, physical, and social needs of each child. We believe that children learn with a variety of activities that will allow for success and encourage advancement in all areas. New Direction provides opportunities for the youth of the Cahokia, especially the most troublesome and ridden areas of the city and surrounding communities to participate in a variety of challenging educational and learning activities designed to enhance individual learning skills, build self-respect and self esteem, and promote an awareness and understanding of good citizenship.

In Monroe County, Indiana, a person earning minimum wage must work 72 hours every week of the year to afford a two-bedroom apartment. In a county where 1 in 5 people are living in poverty, unaffordable housing holds our community back from being a place that families can call “home”. Habitat for Humanity of Monroe County’s mission is to eliminate poverty housing by building simple, decent, affordable homes in partnership with qualifying families. Habitat homeowners pay interest-free, no-profit mortgages, which are used to build more habitat houses. Because houses are principally built with volunteer labor, mortgage payments are affordable for low-income partners. Habitat qualifying families, or partner families, are selected based on their need for housing, ability to repay the no-interest mortgage and willingness to partner with habitat by earning 250 hours of “sweat equity” or volunteer time. Through the work of thousands of volunteers and organizations, habitat for humanity of monroe county has built approx. 170 homes.
