❤️‍🩹🤝🏾🌍 Happy Giving Tuesday! In honor of this day, we would like to spotlight one of our amazing partners, OneAmerica. We both believe in strengthening our community and empowering those who need it most.

A significant barrier facing millions of adult immigrants and refugees is learning English. Through OneAmerica's English Innovations program they work to provide the opportunity for adult immigrants and refugees to fully participate in their communities. Their program uniquely combines adult English learning with digital literacy and community organizing skills to build leadership and power in our immigrant communities.

We recognize those migrants, fleeing from natural and man-made disasters, also risk their lives to make their way to all over the world.

Our Story

African Coalition is a non-profit organization, founded in 2009, in response to the growing challenges of mental illness in African communities, lack of culturally competent outreach, and educational mental health services.

African Coalition was created for charitable and educational purposes. As opposed to most programs that offer a one-dimensional plan at treating issues faced by at-risk individuals, African Coalition takes a more comprehensive approach. African Coalition combines the compassionate goal of supporting our clients through a time where compassion and empathy are the most essential and economic goals of providing much-needed resources when subsidies are vital.

Our program goals and activities include: -Accessing, identifying, and addressing the unmet physical and mental health needs of individuals and their families within the African communities in Los Angeles County. -Conducting culturally-informed outreach, engagement, linkage, education and training to African-born community members; -Promoting collaborations and partnerships between the African communities, the physical and mental health entities, as well as community-based social service organizations; -Linking community members to culturally-competent, linguistically-appropriate physical and mental health service providers; -Advocating on behalf of the community for needed physical and mental health services; Promoting wellness activities through workshops, seminars and health fairs.
