| Boricua College in New York City will use its Hispanic-Serving Institutions Assisting Communities grant to establish a microeconomic development center that will promote and facilitate neighborhood economic development by stimulating the establishment and/or strengthening of the network of small businesses, and promote and provide adult education and training services to improve economic and educational capacity of the culturally diverse low- and moderate-income residents of the Williamsburg and Greenpoint communities of Brooklyn, New York.
The College will partner with the New York State Small Business Administration to achieve the goals of the project. The College has numerous partnerships with community-based organizations that will assist in the promotion of the project.
