Exodus & Resilience is committed to transparent impact. We align our work with the IRIS+ framework and the UN Sustainable Development Goals, while tracking measurable change in U.S. migrant communities.

Our dashboard combines program data (visitors engaged, partner organizations, training hours) with national migration indicators to give funders and partners a full picture of impact.

  • 50+ artworks telling stories of displacement and resilience

  • 8 U.S. cities planned for traveling exhibitions

  • +30% empathy shift measured in post-exhibit surveys (pilot projection)

First-hand impact stories will be shared after the launch of our opening cohort in Q4 2025.

Stay tuned to witness change in action.
