The Old
Walnut
The Multicultural Coalition is located at the
recently renovated Old Walnut Building which is a great location of
the organization with a high percentage of new and established
immigrants that live in the area. Currently the building
houses more than 80 low and moderate income families. The
renovated and revitalized projects that have taken place create
safer neighborhoods and offer a better quality of life. The
building also contributes to the reduction of substandard housing in our
community and helps to stabilize and improve our community.
The Multicultural Coalition is collocated with Grand Island
Public Schools Outreach Center which is a perfect combination
because of the nature of services they provide. Examples of
these services include school registrations, school physicals,
academic assessments and survival English for students grades 6 to
12, support group for Hispanic Moms, and translation and
interpretation services for school related needs through our Spanish
interpreter.
To respond to the increasingly
culturally diverse needs of the Grand Island Community. |
