Bear with us as we re-imagine our grassroots nonprofit. We are not the same as we were May of 2020; so much has changed. The team. The work. The vibe.
So here we are, this winter of 2025, dreaming up a new name; something fitting and cute that honors who we serve, what we do, and who we are. Stay tuned for some magic.

MISSION: The Real Minneapolis is an ecosystem of care that brings hope, health, and healing to the most under-served community members.
VISION: We envision a Minnesota where all people live lives of health and abundance.
