  2. Waterbury's riba (river baldwin association) aspira addresses the economic and racial/ethnic inequities that have devalued this once vibrant south end neighborhood (river baldwin) by creating a strong, resident-driven, civic infrastructure, realigning/relocating job training services to increase resident access, and revising child care decision making policies to be more equitable insuring adequate access for neighborhood children and families. Focusing on one neighborhood provides an opportunity to advance changes in systems and policies and pilot a resident engagement model that can be replicated in other city neighborhoods.

  3. Youth development: our l.a.c.e. (leadership, athletics, community, education) program is designed with two principals in mind: firstly, socio-economic factors do not need to determine a child's scholastic success. And secondly, healthy relationships are a meaningful way to guide adolescents towards their goals. It is the intention of this program that waterbury youth foster the skills necessary to promote professional, academic and personal growth through the four pillars of leadership, athletics, community (outreach) and education. The mission is to empower young students to become future leaders and guide them toward their academic goals to gain access to an equitable path to success. In a safe and supportive environment, students are prepared for the challenges that await them upon graduating from high school and how to transform obstacles into successes.

Arp funds have been provided to support students who enroll in these programs in the form of scholarships. Students who meet eligibility criteria apply through our non-profit partner, the hispanic coalition, to receive awarded funds in these programs. These certificate programs introduce students to necessary coursework and techniques to become proficient front end application developers and application designers, thereby enabling them to become placeable to meet the job market needs in the region. This program helps address several critical issues exacerbated during the covid-19 pandemic in the bridgeport community. Access to quality higher education with a focus on outcomes continues to be too limited among underserved populations. Moreover, employment and career mobility issues have also been barriers for these same communities. By offering accelerated, career-focused programming in an in-demand job market, paier college is helping to educate and place individuals for whom such education may have been inaccessible. With the support of funding through arpa, the…

From the IRS filings of HISPANIC COALITION OF GREATER WATERBURY’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation.
