探花精选 clients arrive with all sorts of skills and talents that they are ready to share with their new American neighbors. As much as the 探花精选 assists clients to adjust to their new surroundings, we also celebrate their backgrounds, talents, and self-expression through a variety of means.

This past June, 探花精选 resettled a Congolese painter named Chishimba Muyambo. Staff quickly fell in in love with his paintings. Deputy Director Alison Millan shared his 鈥減henomenal鈥 work and asked staff to think about how 探花精选 and its supporters could help Chishimba share his paintings here in the U.S.

Chishimba is participating in 探花精选 programs to move toward self-sufficiency, but his art is a key piece of his personality and skillset for future employment and joy here in New Jersey.
