The RISE Celebration has recognized immigrants and the individuals and groups who support them since 2004. All of the nominees possessed the commitment, innovation, passion and abilities to help build better individuals, families, and communities. At the EMCN we believe that breaking down barriers and providing opportunities for understanding and support, we invest in a better future for everyone. The Community Awards will recognize these extraordinary people and groups.
  
In developing the celebration for this year, the EMCN identified a growing number of businesses that are leaders in programs, policies and practices that help in the integration and retention of skilled immigrants. To recognize these leaders we are pleased to present the Employer Awards.
 

This year we unveiled a new logo that celebrates positive transitions, change and growth.
