Initially focused on assisting newly immigrated Ghanaians in Chicago, AACF has since expanded its services to include job training and placement for unemployed and low-income adults and youth in Cook County.

In the 2021-2022 program year, AACF assisted 511 individuals living below the poverty line, with 72% experiencing a wage increase. The organization also provided supportive housing services to 10% of participants, helping many find stable housing.
