To create a thriving, multicultural community where everyone is engaged and has the power to bring about the changes they need to live a full and quality life.

The concept of IMPACT Silver Spring was born when these a community-wide leadership program was developed, bringing people together across lines of difference for relationship, and skill-building. Residents and leaders came to sit around new tables in new environments that recognized and celebrated our community’s diversity. Today, IMPACT has grown to sustain a more comprehensive approach to community change, extending beyond leadership.
