FABRIC, Incorporated
FABRIC, Incorporated is a registered 501(c)(3) and was established in April 2016. The organization is centrally located in the heart of the Mississippi Delta in Cleveland, Mississippi (Bolivar County) and the service population includes individuals & families, adults, youth, formerly incarcerated individuals, and economically distressed populations in 4 of the 18 counties in the Mississippi Delta. The Mississippi Delta, "the Delta", is in the northwest area of the state, is the poorest economic region of the state, and has the highest concentrations of African Americans throughout the communities
FABRIC is considered an emerging organization because the organization starts with the most valuable assets in the community: its people. Our work enhances the social fabric in the Delta through community outreach, education, leadership development and strengthening partnerships. The organization's success is contributed to the shared connections with people, organizations, foundations, and businesses that focus on improving the quality of life in rural communities.
