Solidarity is the Operating Principle.

Muncie Folk Collective strives to address adverse outcomes among people who are often marginalized by society. We provide the resources, tools, and support people need to enhance the quality of their lives and live with dignity. We support individuals to heal and stabilize their lives with agency.

Through a flexible, trust-rooted model, Muncie Folk works alongside neighbors and communities that have historically been excluded from accessible funding to respond to localized needs. Its community-rooted leadership is shaped by the voices and experiences of the people it serves. Muncie Folk exists to provide support to the most isolated members of Muncie through a low-profile, trust-based model. Our goal is for all people to live safer and healthier lives, regardless of substance use, housing status, mental health status, disability, race, ethnicity, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, economic status, immigration status, incarceration status, religion or any other labels that may marginalize a person’s experience.

Muncie Folk was built on the belief that community care isn't a luxury—it’s a necessity. We want people to know that no matter what they are walking through, they don't have to carry it alone. This is about showing up for one another with dignity, zero judgment, and solidarity right here in our local community.
