AnewAmerica Community Corporation graduated 16 new American entrepreneurs from its business planning college certification program on February 12, 2004.

The moving ceremony was held in Holy Names College Black Box Theater.

These new Americans – new citizens, immigrants, and refugees – struggle with barriers of language, culture and politics, as well as all the usual complications of starting a small business, to win this sort of recognition.
