We Inspire for long - lasting self efficiency
Mission: To help all who seek employment. One of Our Helpers primary functions is helping New Americans obtain employment. We accomplish this through helping people search for open jobs, write resumes, practice employment interviews, “dress for success” and teaching language skills. We have built relationships with local businesses to help the employment process go smoothly. We track each client's retention on the job to ensure the proper fit. Anyone is welcome to use our services, there are no requirements in serving everyone.
Mission: To develop the minds, hearts and lives of those who have become susceptible to Drug Abuse, Gang Life and Radicalization. Purpose: The purpose of this project is to identify the unique struggles facing the Somali Immigrant Youth in terms of drug abuse, violence, extremism, etc. We successfully have created a basketball program that includes workshops on issues the youth face. In its third year, 300 youth have benefitted from this incredible program..
We envision a city where all individuals and families can communicate their needs and never have to make a choice that may affect their life due to a language barrier. If you would like to get help communicating with Somali, Arabic, or Swahili speaking audiences or a document translated contact us, we will refer you to one of our interpretation service providers.
