About Us
Mission Statement
New American Development Center (NADC) was founded in 2008 to address the challenges facing the growing East African/Somali immigrant and refugee population in the Twin Cities. NADC’s mission is to lower the poverty rate of refugees, immigrants, and low-income Somali and East African community members through authentic, culturally appropriate, and sustainable programs that include entrepreneurship training, technical assistance, business development, home ownership, and advocacy.
Our Vision
Our vision is to create a sense of belonging for Somali and East African community members in the communities where we live, work, and engage with public and nonprofit institutions.
Our History
Founded in 2008, NADC was established to tackle the challenges faced by the expanding African immigrant population in the Twin Cities.
Over the years, we have created transformative programs designed to support Somali/East African youth, families, entrepreneurs, Housing, and small business owners.
NADC operates with a resident-driven approach, ensuring that our programs and services directly respond to the evolving needs, concerns, and circumstances of the immigrant community in Minnesota.
