Kim Rathjen Receives Human Rights Award

Kim Rathjen Receives Human Rights Award

Congratulations to Kim Rathjen, an Immanuel member and retired Immanuel staff member, for receiving the City of Eden Prairie's 2022 Human Rights Award!

At the presentation in the Eden Prairie City Council Chambers on May 17, 2022, the following was said of her:

"Kim Rathjen upholds the values of the Eden Prairie Manifesto through her consistent dedication to inclusion, education, and active involvement with diverse groups of people. She is the epitome of quiet, impactful leadership.

Over the past 6 years, Kim developed a vision and led implementation for addressing homelessness of young adults in Eden Prairie by helping found Onward Eden Prairie. Onward Eden Prairie now proudly provides stable housing and supportive service to young people in our community.

Beyond her devotion of Onward, Kim also served on the board of PROP from 2015-2021 and has served our community through her work at Immanuel Lutheran Church for 20 years. Kim regularly models the importance of caring for others by providing the community with opportunities to support one another. From collecting food, outerwear, holiday gifts and personal care items for local nonprofits, to leading programs that provided food and school supplies to students at Prairie View Elementary. She’s continued to facilitate efforts to educate community members on issues related to racial justice and provided forums for community members to gather together to learn.

Kim’s impact on our community is immeasurable and we are honored to recognize her here tonight."
