Founded by sisters LaVond and Janay, LaBrownze Empowerment Group honors the legacy of their mother, Saundra 'NaNa' Brown, by transforming her lessons of independence, resilience, and generosity into meaningful opportunities for others. We believe that when people have the right support, resources, connections, and opportunities, they can build stronger, more stable futures. Our mission is rooted in a simple truth: people deserve to feel seen, supported, empowered, and connected.

We meet individuals and families where they are—navigating housing challenges, seeking financial stability, preparing for homeownership, or simply looking for a positive community where they belong. Through comprehensive services including housing stabilization, tenant advocacy and education, financial literacy programs, first-time homebuyer preparation, and community partnerships, we help people identify their next step and move forward. Beyond services, we create meaningful spaces through events like We Do Brunch, community celebrations, and supportive experiences that foster connection, learning, and belonging.
