About Us
We believe that immigrants bring diverse skills and contributions that contribute significantly to the strength of our evolving communities. We hold that mutual respect, commitment to inclusion, and empathy, are fundamental to our nation’s well-being.

Our Mission
Our mission is to build a vibrant community where immigrants can thrive and enrich their communities by providing English and Citizenship classes as well as a network of support services.
Our Vision
We envision thriving and inclusive communities, where immigrant residents acquire the skills and citizenship status necessary to fully participate in society. And, as immigrants enrich our community, non-immigrants also benefit.
