Poder has been an immigrant integration center that for nearly 25 years has helped roughly 14,500 immigrants seize opportunities.
– It's an organization that has been making an impact for immigrants in Chicago for 25 years. Poder, which mean"you can" in Spanish, will enter a new chapter on Friday by opening a brand new headquarters.Poder has already changed thousands of lives in Chicago, helping Spanish-speaking immigrants learn English and help the land jobs. The new facility in Gage Park is already being called a gamechanger.
Aside from the many opportunities waiting for them in the U.S., the driving force that brought Acebedo's family here was to get treatment for their son Jose Andres who had a brain tumor. Six years later, it turned out to be the best decision he made in his newly-adopted city. Now fluent in English, Acebedo works for the very organization that changed his life.
The organization is entering a new chapter with the opening of its new regional headquarters in Gage Park, which will become Chicago's first immigrant integration and job center taking up residency in a building abandoned for over 25 years."[We help them in] understanding financial and digital literacy to navigate this 21st century society is like that in basic need of that," said Brian Kopinski, program coordinator for Poder's integrated English services.
