East Meets West of Troost is an economic development corporation that is dedicated to markedly improving the economic commerce exchange in both the East and West side of Troost. Troost Ave. has been a long-standing east side/ west side dividing line marking the Difference between the Country Club Plaza, JC Nichols Shopping district's Brush Creek, and the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr Ave and contrast on Brush Creek... Freedom Fountain is the highlight of the only City fountain designed by an African American Artist. "The Hood" is located east of Troost. State Representative Lloyd Daniel wrote a poem reflecting the contrast between the Ghetto and Guns on the North side of Troost and Nuclear Bombs on the South side of Troost.
We are bridging the gap between neighborhoods in Kansas City, Missouri, and the Greater Kansas City Missouri Area.
We encourage our youth to believe in themselves and their Positive potential. This will allow microeconomic development to cultivate small Urban businesses, cultural groups, vendors, and artists, economic opportunities who would otherwise lack economic development assistance.
Some of our main projects are in cooperative connection to Green Careers, Urban Farming, and Recycling efforts to raise funds for studio time, to cultivate our At-Risk Youth into local Hip-Hop Arts and expression and develop into Community Activists. Our Artists have performed for Local and National Political, social and environmental Actions!
We also provide counseling and support with our community services for the housing, and outreach to incarcerated individuals, family support, and re-entry programs.
Kansas City Missouri's Youth are faced with a lot of issues that are commonly overlooked such as Homelessness, Human Trafficking, Sexual Abuse, Child Neglect, Abduction, Latch-key children, Gang violence, Homicide, Incarceration, Literacy, Proper Education, and Child Poverty...
At EMWOT we sincerely believe that children are the future of the world!

EMWOT is dedicated to the sharing of experiences, best practices and methods for achieving sustainability in our personal lives, our communities and our Ecosystems.
As Troost put behind it the dividing line that separated the races, Blacks moved south across the 27th street, race boundary line to Linwood, to Brush Creek, to 63rd street and eventually to Bannister and beyond, as white flight moved to gated communities and further west of Troost. As new neighborhoods are built, EMWOT plays its role in organizing an economically sustainable community.
