Resolving Conflict & Transforming Lives, Since 1996

HISTORY

Nabhi Christian Ministries (NCM) was founded in 1996 in response to the extreme gang violence in Larimer, Pittsburgh. Its mission is to enhance impoverished communities by reducing havoc and cultivating healthy environments through mentoring, training, and developing quality citizens of all ages.

NCM started as home prayer and worship meetings with just 12 members. As the ministries grew, the meetings expanded to include community outreach and care for the whole person. NCM became a refuge and mediator for peaceful solutions for frightened young people from neighboring violent communities.

Throughout its history, NCM has played a crucial role in unifying local leaders of all backgrounds and faiths to promote community healing through prayer and its outreach, the Concerned Citizens of Greater Pittsburgh (CCOGP). NCM has successfully mediated Pittsburgh's first-ever gang peace rally resulting in a public peace truce and a cease-gunfire between five rival gangs.

NCM has partnered with various organizations and governments to help mediate community conflict, mobilize communities to take the lead in developing their own communities, and implement conflict resolution outreach projects to reduce delinquent behavior and the drop out rate for adjudicated youth.

NCM has received numerous proclamations and awards for its outstanding public service, dedication, and tireless community work.

In 2020, NCM pivoted to meet the needs of the community during COVID19 and expanded its Hands for Hope projects to include intensive case management, family strengthening programs, and basic needs support to help low-income families achieve child well-being, family stability, and self-sufficiency.

NCM is committed to supporting low-income families and neighbors and is excited to continue serving the community through these expanded projects.
