The mission of Monument Impact is to ensure that immigrants, refugees and low-income residents in Concord and surrounding communities have the voice, tools and relationships necessary to have an equitable share of the social and economic wealth in our region.
“By learning computer skills, I can compete in the job market. I can aspire to an administrative position or even open my own business. ”
Fernando, Beginning Technology Student
We offer multiple pathways to economic advancement including computer skills from beginning to advanced, job readiness and placements, and we support emerging businesses to become licensed.
Through community engagement, Monument Impact’s members build their power to fight for economic justice and racial equity.
Using a holistic approach to health equity, we interweave advocacy, culturally sensitive mental and physical health programs, and outreach to ensure residents’ voices are heard.
Our cross-cutting programs, including Arts & Culture and Immigration Services, explore critical issues identified by community members. Some are stand alone programs like Day Labor, others may be temporary projects with an end goal of creating equity-centered policy to help close the income gap, like ELEVATE Concord.
