Program accomplishments

  • Community Development - The Concentric Program invests in New American leaders as they make West Michigan home and transform communities to be more responsive and welcoming to New Americans. We are multiplying the existing New American leaders throughout West Michigan who are best able to close gaps between their language/cultural communities and local resources. Our hope is to eventually expand this program to other cities through an easy to replicate curriculum. Our vision for this program is to build up stronger networks of support for and among New American families and also to cultivate a visible and respected New American workforce. Leaders that have graduated formalized their skills in ways that increased their ability to leverage their experience into the job and educational opportunities they desire.
    Expenses $1,099,317
  • Social Enterprise - Treetops Collectives Social Enterprise provides a fair wage to refugee women and teen girls who are making and selling our goods. Although this initiative fits in to our priority of economic development, it also serves as an engagement tool for our broader community who get to see the skills and talents refugees are bringing to our community; this flips the dominant narrative that refugees take from their communities of resettlement, when in fact, they add both cultural and economic prosperity.
    Expenses $184,613
