Board of Directors
Dedication. Expertise. Passion.
In 2012, West African immigrant and refugee mothers living in Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center saw the challenges facing families within their communities. Using their knowledge about the communities and having a personal understanding of the challenges faced by newly-immigrant families, the mothers came together to create change, and Legacy Family Center was created.
