Immigrants play a vital role in Connecticut’s success. They constitute one in every seven residents, own nearly 50,000 businesses, and collectively account for 24% of all self-employed individuals. These contributions result in an annual business income of $1.2 billion. Immigrant households contribute billions of dollars in taxes that fund our schools, infrastructure, and healthcare. In sectors such as construction, technology, and healthcare, immigrant workers play vital roles, driving innovation and fostering economic growth. Today, on International Migrants Day, let’s recognize that immigration fuels growth, diversity, and opportunity in Connecticut. Immigrants are not just part of our story—they’re at the heart of it. Swipe to see why migration matters for all of us. You can also learn more about the impact of immigration on Connecticut's economy through the following IRIS resource: https://lnkd.in/eMXU98JM #NationOfWelcome #Refugees #Immigrants #Connecticut #IMD2024 #ImmigrantsContribute #InnovationThroughImmigration

Thanks to Natacha Agnant-Jacque for including us in your planning sessions. We love working with the team at Eurest and ESFM® USA! We're excited to continue our partnership to open pathways to skills, career mobility, and opportunity.
Inclusion doesn’t happen by chance—it takes action, intention, and collaboration. That’s exactly what made my time with the DIAC Leadership team (Ritu Dewan, Marc Oppen, Elise Weiss, MHRM, SHRM-SCP, and Chriselle Aquio) so impactful. We missed you Danielle (Agan) Lanciano. Our Diversity Inclusion Action Council (DIAC) is focused on driving lasting culture change, and we spent two days bringing that mission to life. We kicked off with a half day of brainstorming strategies to deepen workplace inclusion, followed by the simple yet meaningful act of breaking bread together. On day two, we partnered with Katie Brown, PhD and Adam Kaplan of EnGen as well as Denny Modesto ESL committee member, to celebrate the incredible success of our ESL program, which continues to empower and uplift so many. The relaunched DIAC is more than just a council—it’s a resource, a connector, and a driver of meaningful change. I’m excited to see the impact we’ll create together in 2025!

The new data from the PIAAC Survey of Adult Skills, released last week, provides a snapshot of the skill levels of adults around the world. In the US, we are at a crossroads in which we have the chance to leverage these results to invest in adult education and create a stronger and more sustainable future for our country. ➡️ We invite you to share this new information widely and to use it to advocate for change. ➡️ The National Coalition for Literacy joined us in publishing this press release: https://hubs.la/Q0301SF30
