LifeWise StL Helping families improve their economic well-being and transform their lives in ๐Ÿ“ St. Louis
-Rooted in our foundation as Kingdom House since 1902- Louis.

Our story began in 1902 when Kingdom House was founded as a settlement house. Middle class men and women provided education and resources to help the growing immigrant population of St. They created a place of hope, refuge, learning and connection. Weโ€™re incredibly proud these ideals have endured even as the community around us has changed and life situations are more challenging. Our organization has experienced its own metamorphosis as it adapted to meet the needs of our participants in this changing environment. We listened to and learned from them. As we did that, we continued to move away from crisis service transactions toward holistic transformations. Our priorities have shifted to focus on an individualโ€™s overall well-being. Today, we have a model that is based on educational programming fused with personalized and supportive coaching. We see our participants taking measurable steps to better their futures. This evolution of our fundamental vision and approach led us to choose LifeWise StL as our new name in 2019. It conveys what we are about โ€” helping people at every age live wisely. Our mission is to help individuals and families achieve economic well-being by providing high-impact, relationship-based programs and by addressing systemic barriers to their success.

In the aftermath of the May 2025 tornado, LifeWise StL was selected as one of four agencies to provide disaster case management for seniors whose homes and lives were impacted by the storm.

This Construction Manager would join our dynamic team of disaster case managers who work one-on-one with older adults (ages 60+) to navigate the complex recovery process, helping seniors safely remain in or return to stable housing.

Therapy looks different for everyone.

Sometimes it's about having somewhere safe to let things out. Sometimes it's about understanding yourself better, learning coping skills, setting boundaries, or simply having someone walk alongside you while life changes.

You don't have to wait until everything feels overwhelming to ask for support.

Therapy can be a space to pause, process, and reconnect with yourself. ๐Ÿค
