Smart Development

Smart Development is a 501c3 nonprofit providing a continuum of services to Northeast Ohio’s newcomer, refugee, immigrant, and ethnic-minority community. Formally founded in 2018, Smart Development has earned the trust of the immigrant, refugee, newcomer, and international community at-large due to our ability to provide immediate support through a culturally and linguistically competent lens, meeting clients where they are and helping them lead toward stability and self-sufficiency. We focus on key milestones along the unique pathways of those we serve that build on one another and contribute to long-term success tailored to their needs.
