Dear Community Leaders & Members of the Continental African Community;

Dear Friends of Africa:

Our population is growing in the United States with the potentials, like the Hispanic, Asian and Jewish communities, to become an empowered community.

Your presence and participation in the LEGACY program on March 29, 2014 will enable Community Collaboration for Empowerment.

The multi-sector and interactive program is complementary: It highlights the inter-connected systems of a vibrant and vital community: economic, social, cultural and civic, including special segments on youth and women.

The Civic Empowerment Segment with Rev. Dr. Sylvester Okere will address the census, data and their implications on resource allocations; civic engagement that fosters the ability of the community to influence public processes in order to achieve outcomes at local, state and federal levels; immigration updates; the 2014 elections and impacts on issues that affect the community; services for community residents; community collaboration and advocacy for impacts.These are among the burning quality of life issues and we encourage spotlight on other issues.

Every new and emerging population in the US had to leverage its collective power to become reckoning community. You have the ability to make the difference and no effort is too small for the change.

Therefore, let us work together, complementing
efforts to build a sustainable community.

Everyone Counts.
