About the event:
For the 11th year, Raising Our Voices continues its legacy of celebrating
ESOL Leadership in Business and
the Community. This event highlights exceptional immigrant ESOL learners
by giving them a platform to share
their stories, while also recognizing
the businesses and individuals who support this important cause!
At the heart of Massachusetts' vibrant communities and robust economy are the hardworking immigrants who have chosen this state as their home.
Immigrants are integral to our workforce, stepping into essential roles across various sectors. From healthcare to manufacturing and hospitality, their skills and dedication address crucial workforce needs. By investing in ESOL, immigrants gain the language skills to excel in their roles, further enhancing their contributions and integrating seamlessly into the workforce.
Immigrants significantly contribute to Massachusetts' economic growth.
In celebrating the journey of immigrants and their
pursuitof English proficiency at Raising Our Voices, we acknowledge their vital role in making Massachusetts a welcoming, thriving, and dynamic place to live and work. Their resilience, dedication, and contributions are integral
to our collective success, and we are proud to support and celebrate their achievements.
We also take great pride in recognizing the businesses
and individuals who have championed, advocated for, and worked tirelessly to ensure ESOL access for immigrants in our communities.
