MCN ANNOUNCEMENT
The Muslim Community Network is delighted to announce Husein Yatabarry as our new Executive Director. Following a comprehensive nationwide search, the MCN board of directors recognized in Husein the visionary leadership essential for ushering MCN into its next phase as a leading organization in New York City.
Born in the Bronx as the first American-born child of Gambian Muslim immigrants, Husein's unique journey marries resilience with a deep commitment to community empowerment. He is a proud graduate of The City College of New York and has showcased remarkable leadership in the education sector, receiving accolades such as the Cardinal (Educator) of the Year award from the Brilla School Network.
Husein's dedication and strategic acumen were especially evident during his tenure as the Executive Director of Neighborhood United during the COVID-19 crisis. There, he championed innovative programs for South Bronx youth and ensured the organization's sustainability through strategic resource management. His efforts have not gone unnoticed; he was nominated as the Community Leader of the Year at the Sene-Gambia West African Awards in 2021 and was recognized in The Black Muslim Series in Ramadan 2023.
We are confident that Husein's proven leadership and passion will usher MCN into its next transformative phase.
Join us in extending a warm welcome to him, and feel free to connect at [email protected].
Also, don't miss the chance to meet Husein in person at MCN's 21st Gala Ceremony on October 22nd.
Best regards,
