Fast Facts

The area served by MFS Calumet, known as Greater Roseland, faces a number of challenging issues, including a high crime rate, a number of under-performing schools, limited job and economic opportunities, limited access to health care and a high number of teen pregnancies and grandparents raising grandchildren.  Metropolitan responds to these issues by offering parent education, education programming for youth, and services for seniors, in addition to a number of other programs that provide hope and help to families in need.
