Transforming Lives in Newark, NJ
The Greater Life story began 38 years ago when Reverends Michael and Maria Westbrook recognized a critical gap in after-school and summer enrichment programs in Newark. Many of these services were inaccessible to young men and women with gang affiliations or truancy records. In the South Ward of Newark, where Greater Life operates, there is a pressing need for targeted services that address systemic poverty, violence, and spiritual alienation.
Over the years, the Westbrooks have dedicated their lives to developing programs that are culturally sensitive and morally focused, inspiring over 44,000 youth and family members in crisis to become productive members of society. Greater Life is not just a collection of programs; it is a supportive community where every participant is paired with a mentor, guiding them from grade school through college and into successful adulthood.
Making a Lasting Impact
Every year, Greater Life serves over 3,000 youths, their families, and seniors, focusing on those affected by poverty and unstable family lives. As Newark continues to rise, Greater Life plays a crucial role in empowering youth and families to contribute to the city's transformation.
