On January 26, 2025, a crucial meeting was held by the Somali Community Empowerment Association of Brooks (SCEAB), bringing together community leaders, scholars, and key participants to address the severe unemployment crisis facing over 100 members of our Somali community—many of whom are newcomers. Some have been unemployed for over a year.

The meeting was a pivotal moment in our efforts to create lasting change. As a result, a committee was formed to work directly with local employers, city officials, and representatives to find solutions and create job opportunities.

This collaboration is essential for the well-being of our community. Stay tuned for updates and ways you can support the initiative!
