The Mission of the
Italian American Community Center is to sustain the social vitality and cultural
vibrancy of the Italo American heritage by strengthening family life, uplifting
human services, binding together the diverse historical traditions of Italians,
and honoring the legacy of Italian immigration to the United States.
In a way that:
-
provides direct family services to the
Rochester Community
-
provides residential care for senior
members of our community
-
provides opportunities to gain new
knowledge through educational, cultural, recreational, and sporting events.
-
provides a meeting place for social and
professional gatherings
-
facilitates community involvement
through working partnerships with other community-based organizations
-
creates opportunities for interacting
with other ethnic and racial groups
So that we:
-
become a cohesive community proud of
our Italian heritage
-
reduce the incidence of ethnic
stereotyping and bias
-
enable seniors to participate in family
and community life
-
gain respect for our heritage by
children and youth
-
practice good citizenship skills
-
sustain a focal point in the community
where every Italian American and those who appreciate Italian culture can
acquire and practice our cultural traditions
