Development of empowerment model was needed to overcome poverty in the city. The aim of this research was to develop empowerment model to overcome poverty in the city. Urbanization was obviously one of the causes of poverty in the city. Actually, there were many programs to overcome poverty, but they did not reach the urban society. It was because there was no specific program for them. It was necessary to make a compatible model of empowerment based on their characteristic. Society in urban area had unique characters, such as living in a slum area that had bad sanitation, and working in informal sector. The research was done in Surabaya, precisely in 10 villages (Ujung, Bulak Banteng, Wonokusumo, Sidotopo Wetan, Tanah Kali Kedinding, Bulak, Dupak, Bongkaran, Sukolilo, and Moro Krembangan) in the slum. This study used explanatory qualitative method. Interviews were conducted on 323 respondents (15 village officers, 8 government agencies, 18 RT, 47 RW, and 235 slum residents). It could be concluded that the empowerment model to overcome this problem should consist of training, loan, and employment program.
