The organization concentrates on human services to assist newcomers, aiming to reduce the burdens of immigration and to promote understanding of the immigrant experience within the broader community. Its work emphasizes engaging immigrants, connecting cultures, and fostering a thriving, inclusive community through a combination of direct services and community education. The center operates with a small team and relies on private support from individuals, churches, and the United Way to fund its programs.
