Who We are
Since 1996, Minority Development & Empowerment has been the leading agency and the “go to organization” to address and respond to the needs of the growing Caribbean population. According to the 2000 Census, the two largest ethnic groups moving into Broward County are Jamaicans, 17%, and Haitians, 15.8%. Palm Beach County has experienced similar shifts in their demographics. With the collaboration of our strategic partners, we are able to provide quality services, referrals and advocacy to meet our clients’ health, social, economic, educational and personal needs. We utilize a unique approach in assessing the needs our clients and believe that the services offered are vital to maintaining self-sufficiency and assuring a better quality of life for the community at-large.
