The beginning

With more than 42 years of experience serving immigrants, ACCESS has cultivated an ability to grow and evolve with the needs of its community. For decades, ACCESS has endowed its clients with the resources they need to survive and thrive.

In recent years, ACCESS witnessed the hardships of metro Detroit’s economic downturn and the advantages of embracing a growing foreign-born population. Recognizing the need for regional revitalization and new avenues by which immigrants could adapt and become self-sufficient, ACCESS saw an opportunity.

Coupling the creativity and resourcefulness of immigrants with the demand for community-based collaboration, the Growth Center was founded to foster independence as well interdependence between resouces in the community.



The Growth Center Vision


  • We see ACCESS Growth Center as the springboard for the integration and success of Southeast Michigan’s robust immigrant population.

  • We see the Growth Center adding a game-changing new dimension to the economic development of Metro Detroit.

  • We see the Center welcoming immigrants to the region via a complete resource apparatus that matures along with the needs of its clientele.

  • We see the Growth Center as a catalyst for neighborhood improvement, facilitating progress that strengthens and bonds communities.

  • We see the impact of individual and neighborhood success stories mushrooming to generate positive change throughout the region.
