Mission Statement
Beyond90 is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that bridges the gap to self-sufficiency by providing support services, mental health, skills building classes and housing to refugees as they work to build new lives in Northeast Florida.
Description
Beyond90 has a special niche and meets a critical need. Newly arriving refugees are only provided enough funds for furnishings and rent for the first 90 days. A number of these refugees have lived in camps an average of 17 years and some suffer from disabilities due to the circumstances that caused them to flee. At the end of this 90 day period, many are not self-sufficient, which adds to the already overwhelming amount of stress that accompanies adapting to a new country and a new culture. In partnership with other non-profits and NGO's in our community, we work to strengthen and empower families in the following areas health, education and well-being.
