“The Liberian flag is so similar to our own flag; we have a common goal, common people, and common responsibilities, especially when it comes to those with special needs. I am honored to join the Ambassador and the entire Arc family here, as we raise the Liberian flag,” Mayor Gusciora said.
In 2022, Arc Mercer made history after unveiling a partnership to bring an ARC chapter to the Republic of Liberia under the “International Partnership Initiative”. Through the project, staff members will be recruited directly from Liberia to train and build skills in New Jersey to return to Liberia.
“As Liberians, we are interconnected and bonded by a sheer heritage that transcends borders, tribes, or sectionalism. As we celebrate our Liberian heritage we must also reflect on the immense potential our community holds,” Ambassador Dowana stated.
