Horn Of Africa Community Development

Empowering All Generations Through Education and Community Support

About Us

Horn of Africa Community Development (HACD) was established to respond to the social, educational, and economic challenges facing individuals and families from the Horn of Africa and the broader community. Founded by community leaders and advocates, the organization emerged from a shared commitment to support newcomers, uplift youth, honor elders, and strengthen families through culturally responsive services. Since its inception, HACD has worked closely with residents, local partners, and service providers to address gaps in access to education, social services, and community resources. The organization has grown into a trusted community-based organization known for its grassroots approach, cultural understanding, and dedication to intergenerational support.
