Better Family Life Membership Association

Better Family Life Membership Association Since 1983, we have offered social services to communities whose populations face barriers to employment, housing, education, and youth services.

Better Family Life’s Membership program is an ecumenically based social, cultural and spiritual movement that works to uplift African American people and communities. Our ultimate goal is to be an inspirational force to help members of these populations become productive citizens of society by reintegrating them into the civic affairs of their respective communities. We also strive to help them st

abilize their families, create businesses and rebuild communities. We utilize the arts, community events and intellectual forums as a means of increasing self-awareness and recruiting new members. MISSION:
The mission is to galvanize and strengthen the African American family through personal, intellectual and professional development, through civic/community involvement and leadership opportunities. GOAL:
Our goal is to secure 1000 members. A 1000 membership group is an illustration to the community that unity of purpose is achievable and can be used to effectively and substantially champion causes which will stimulate upward mobility for individuals, families and communities. By becoming a member you not only contribute to your own legacy of service but you give the citizens of the communities we serve an opportunity to do the same. For additional information on becoming a member or would like to request a tour of our facility please contact Jihad Khayyam 314.377.3440 ext 715

We sincerely thank you for your interest and look forward to your involvement. Visit our website at www.betterfamilylife.org or call us at (314) 367-3440.
