We are deeply saddened by the passing of Granville Waiters. He was a long-time supporter of the organization – going back more than a decade, to 2010. Shortly after, he joined the board of directors and in October 2013 he became board Chair. We are grateful for his service to the community and for helping the agency move forward in achieving our goals. The chair at the head of the table will have a hole, but Granville would want us to rebound. We will continue to fulfill our mission in serving the community and always remember Granville Waiters as we do so.

Our mission is to “reach out and touch” the lives of individuals and families, empowering them to achieve self-sufficiency, positive relationships, and economic success.

Founded in 1984, Metropolitan Community Services (MCS) has been serving vulnerable populations in our communities, including formerly incarcerated individuals, for nearly 35 years. In 2008, Teaching Opportunity Unity by Connecting Hearts (T.O.U.C.H.), was founded with a focus on building a peer-to-peer mentoring culture and workforce development programming. MCS and T.O.U.C.H. combined forces, to form what is commonly known as MCS-T.O.U.C.H. Now the agency serves incarcerated men and women who are soon-to-be-released, formerly incarcerated men and women, and other at-risk populations 18 years of age and older.
