We partner with human services providers to maximize effectiveness by integrating principles of leadership, excellence, service and humanity.
We are in the business of people-building. Nations are made of people. All people are valuable and worth investing in and edifying. Vulnerable people need effective intervention, encouragement, and connection. We exist to edify and improve the lives of people who, for various reasons, do not have their most fundamental needs met. We edify people by consulting and partnering with providers, community members and allies of vulnerable populations.
ENCI was founded by Yakiciwey Mitchell, DSW-C, MSW for the purpose of enhancing the lives of vulnerable people through direct services and by consulting with public and private social welfare agencies.
