Through their shared Social Change Model, Briya and Mary’s Center have together touched tens of thousands of families with a comprehensive approach to whole family care. Briya and Mary’s Center share physical space at three locations (Adams Morgan, Petworth South and Fort Totten) to promote direct access to resources for all their families.
Collaboration for Immigrant Families
The Collaboration for Immigrant Families (Collab) is a network of professionals working in support of immigrant families in the DMV area. With the foundational belief that we have the wisdom and creativity to confront challenges and find answers together, the group’s goal is to foster more effective collaboration that strengthens and supports immigrant families.
During the 2025-2026 school year, representatives from 95 organizations, schools, and agencies across a variety of sectors—social services, mental health, education, legal services, housing, public benefits, and more—attended at least one of the three main Collab events.
