About Edmund Rice Center Nairobi
Edmund Rice Centre Nairobi (ERCN) is a community-based organization that provides educational, vocational and livelihood services to vulnerable communities living in the informal settlement of Kibera. ERFA has a proud history of supporting ERCN projects. Edmund Rice Centre Nairobi (ERCN), a ministry of the Christian Brothers, Africa Province, was established in 2020 and is officially registered as a community-based organization. The Edmund Rice Advocacy Network (ERAN), Mary Rice Center, and Edmund Rice Karibu Group (ERKG), all located in Nairobi, merged to establish this new organization. The Edmund Rice Advocacy Network was established in 2012 with the goal of advancing a just and sustainable community through advocacy for communities and Edmund Rice Ministries in East Africa (ERMEA). The Edmund Rice Karibu Group was founded in 2012 with a focus on youth empowerment in Kibera. The Edmund Rice Center was established in 2007 with a focus on children with disabilities in Kibera. Now combined, the three form ERCN, combining knowledge, skills, and resources.
