ETHIOPIAN AND ERITREAN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

Mission Statement

It is the mission of the Ethiopian and Eritrean Community Development Project to enhance the quality of life and self-sufficiency of Ethiopian and Eritrean immigrants, refugees, and asylees as well as the broader Boise community. We provide leadership, advocacy, education and fundraising for the planning and delivery of these services in partnership with public and private organizations. Our organization is created to enhance the integration process while facilitating cultural pluralism within the immigration and refugee community. Our hope is to allow for a safe environment to nurture cross-cultural communication and understanding of different communities and customs.
