As we shared earlier this year, Embrace turned 15 years old on March 30th of 2020.  To celebrate we are giving away $15,000 in awards to community builders who are using the Empowered Communities Framework to strengthen communities from the inside out using Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) principles and practices. These awards come in the form of training and coaching services along with implementation funding to support community building initiatives.  

To learn more about our first grantee of 2020, Xiomara Vidal here. 

We are proud to announce our second grantee is Cheryl Groce-Wright. Cheryl has been practicing ABCD for many years and completed a Power Shift Learning Cohort earlier this summer.  You can learn more about Cheryl's project in the video below.
