Our Story

Our Founder and CEO Dr. Chanel Hampton’s grandparents, Lola Mae and Joe Harris migrated to Detroit, MI in 1945 seeking and praying for opportunity, access, and equity. Despite hardship and oppression, they persevered with zeal and determination to build opportunities not only for themselves, but also for their community. Their influence and prayers planted a seed that generations later helped birth Strategic Community Partners and are a core part of who we are. We know that the power, passion, and vision of just one prayer can influence the future.

Let’s create the future of equity together.
