7. OUTREACH: Describe how you use, or will use, marketing and outreach strategies with your intended service populationHow will these efforts improve your services?

Freedom Inc staffs/volunteers/board members are from Hmong/Khmer/Queer Black communities therefore we use their

connections and networks to distribute materials/spread awareness/information and recruit for this project. Due to safety issues both

for the advocates and clients the agency does not publicly promote our DA/SA services. In the past 10 years outreach has occurred

through word of month and personal or professional referrals. Advocates are active in these communities and usually meet clients

everywhere; family gatherings, cultural and religious gatherings at people's homes or at the Buddhist temple or at churches. Other

services are provided as a gateway to safely allow our clients to interact with the agency.

8.COLLABORATION: Describe your agency's experience and success in collaborating with other organizations to deliverservices to the target population for this program. To what extent are you using collaborative approaches in this program de

Due to the lace of culturally appropriate Hmong/SEA services within our communities, we often have to create new services with the ad

of parents and youths that can better address the needs of our communities. For example, while many

of our youths are homeless and poor (often) they do not seek services from mainstream service providers therefore we connect them

to “safe” family members/trusted friends/relatives/friends within the community when children or teens need housing, food, and othe

We always look for new systems of accountability and services for our communities who don’t feel they can seek services from already

existing services. For this project FI will: RISE Law Center, Cambodian Temple, Rape crisis center (as needed) local DV shelter as needed

National Asian Pacific Islander Domestic Violence Institute, public health nurse, churches, Kajsiab House.

ORGANIZATION: Freedom Inc

AGENCY ORGANIZATIONAL PROFILE

1. AGENCY MISSION STATEMENT

FI has a unique approach: it provides programs that are designed to be language, gender and culture-specific to women, gender-non-

conforming/transgender folks, and youth in Black/Hmong/SEA communities. Our mission is to create social change that end violence

against women, gender-non-conforming and transgender folks, and children within communities of color. FI works to challenge the

root causes of violence, poverty, racism and discrimination. Our belief is that people most impacted must have voice, power

, opportunities/resources order for true justice and liberation to happen.

2. AGENCY EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONSFreedom, Inc. (FI) is a non-profit organization that provides services to low- to no-income communities of color in Dane County--is the only

organization in Dane County that specifically works on Southeast Asian women’s and youth issues, and LGBTQ Southeast Asian and Black peo

Freedom, Inc. began in 2003, as a Southeast Asian (SEA-Hmong and Khmer) girls support group; our primary goal consisted of looking at new

definitions and solutions to ending violence against women and children. FI has a unique approach: it provides programs that are designed to

language, gender and culture-specific to women, gender-non-conforming and transgender folks, and youth in Black and Hmong/SEA commun

Since 2003, Freedom Inc has served and advocated for hundreds of poor people SEAfamilies, victim of domestic/sexual violence, youths,

Black Queer folks, elders, children, poor/homeless folks), built strong leaders from these communities, and most importantly contributed to

improving the quality of life for Madison’s most impacted (by racial disparity). Freedom, Inc, has a long history working with Hmong/Khmer/a

Queer Black youths, women, and elders. We have a committed group of volunteers, staffs/ board members that reflect the community we se

FI’s leading staffs have combined over 35 years experiences working to serve Hmong/Khmer/Queer Black communities. We have a proven tra

record within these communities as well as building and running a solid non-profit organization.

3. AGENCY UPDATE: Describe any significant change or shifts that the agency has experienced in the last year, or that you may anticipate in the next few years. For example, changes in leadership, significant turnover in staffing, strategic planning processes, expansions or loss of funding. What, if any, affects will these shifts have on the agency'sability to provide contracted services? If there were no changes, write "no changes" in box below.

Yes, there is a slight shift in our agency services. Over the past 15 years, our services have shifted to meet the needs of our most

underserved community members. We want to specific increase services to meet the needs of sexual assault victims in the

Hmong/Khmer/Black (specifically Queer folks). In addition, there is an increase request/need for services/advocacy from 1. Hmong

families (especially children/teens/elders/women--with the closing of United Asian/lack of services) 2. Black Queer teens/youths (due

to FI’s intentional work within this community) 3. Khmer families (women and children—literally no culturally appropriate

services/advocacy programs –outside of mental health services). Since the mis-management/defunding of United Asian there has

literally been no other agency in town that can provide the basic support services needed for poor/working poor/homeless

Hmong/Khmer families/individuals. Current socio-economic/racial disparity within the Hmong and Khmer communities, coupled

with the lack of culturally appropriate services (especially women, children, elders) these two communities continue to struggle to

meet their basic human needs. We want to expand our services to meet the needs of single parent fem-queer-homes, elders (ages 55

and up- who are not served by Journey Mental Health Southeast Asian services---Kajsiab House/Cambodian Temple) including

retired-elders, disabled elders, and physically isolated Southeast Asian elders that are not receiving any services due to language,

culture, ability, and mobility. There is a need for services to queer teen/youth of color especially Hmong/Black. In the past 5 years,

we’ve helped to create space and services to meet their specific needs through national funding. The funding ended this summer. We

want to continue to provide services/advocacy/support to them-specifically those with mental health/wellness challenges. In the past

year, we provided worked with 10 individuals (8 with mental health challenges). In addition, we want to secure office

space/community space to specific work with Southeast Asian families (currently non-exist within Madison-outside of Kajsiab

4. ENGAGEMENT: Describe how you integrate, or will integrate, community input into your agency strategic planning(e.g., input or involvement in the creation, design, implementation, and feedback for services)? How will these efforts improveyour services? Include specific strategies that address client and participant engagement, along with relevant community engaThe foundation to all FI’s work is to end gender-based violence against violence of women, girls, children, gender-queer/gender

non-conforming, two spirited, and boy-girl/trans folks in poor communities of color. Our core beliefs is that those most impacted must lea

are well-respected mothers, grandmothers, and community leaders (3-5 women)/ Youth of Color Health Council, and who provide voice a

leadership for us. FI is able to recruit, and maintain such high numbers of youth in our programs-- we are from the communities we serve

organize within. Our youth staff and teen contractors (who work closely with staff listed below) are instrumental in recruiting/rooting us in

communities and making sure FI is meeting folks where they. Each program is designed to meet cultural-, gender-, and age-specific needs

communities. Due to the different cultural and social practices of these various SEA groups, LGBTQ identities, and Black identities, FI. prom

staff and volunteer diversity to meet specific cultural linguistic needs of each community served and develops cultural competence as a

fundamental principle, so staff and volunteers are most often from the communities we serve and organize within. Most importantly, FI m

it a priority to hire women, gender-non-conforming and transgender folks, and youths to work with women, gender non-conforming

and transgender people, and youths. To ensure that those most impacted drive FI's work and FI is accountable to underepresented

underrepresented communities of color (especially youths and children), FI's staffs and voard reflect the membership of those we serve.

FI takes a non-hierarchical, shared power model, for making decisions and growing the organization, so members of all our youth groups

are at the table for decision-making and strategic visioning of FI programs. Board admin. staffs follow the leadership of people who work

who work closely with the community. This model of work ensures that FI will continue to develop leaders from the grassroots, keep the

keep the program effective, and keep our leadership inextricably connected to and reflective of the communities they are working in.
