COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT, COMMUNITY OUTREACH & SUPPORTIVE SERVICES

With access to relevant resources and information, individuals can become empowered.

Through collaborative programs and partnerships, our goal is to provide opportunities to further enhance the personal and professional aspects of the community.

INTERCULTURAL ENGAGEMENT

Our neighborhoods are comprised of many different cultures and each one plays a major role in the growth and development of our communities.

We foster engagement by offering programs and events which will increase our understanding and appreciation of a multicultural world.

RAFAEL M. TORRES

Founders

In one capacity or another, Rafael and I have always been engaged in our respective communities.

We realized that we encountered similar situations when trying to help someone, or even when we personally needed to access a resource.

Our approach changed from just wanting to lend a helping hand to actively encouraging and reminding people of the potential they already possess.
