This month we hosted a celebration to thank our Welcoming Fort Wayne steering committee members for all of their hard work and dedication. It’s hard to believe that two years have passed since we had our first call to action meeting at Parkview Field.
Since then, we’ve created and launched the Welcoming Fort Wayne Plan (available in English, Spanish, and Burmese), built new partnerships to support immigrant entrepreneurs and workers, advocated for language access across industries, and created new opportunities for civic and community engagement. We are so excited to see what comes next.
Pictured above, Steering Committee members show off their certificates of recognition. From left to right: Nikki Quintana, Rosalina Perez, Jennifer Mabee, Emily Keirns, Ermina Mustedanagic, and Sarah Strimmenos. A full list of names can be found in the Welcoming Fort Wayne Plan.
Special thanks to our core partners Greater Fort Wayne Inc., Downtown Fort Wayne, Allen County, Allen County Public Library and Community Foundation of Greater Fort Wayne.
