Diversity, Equity, Accessibility and Inclusion The diverse fabric of our community is made by the nuances of our ethnic and cultural heritage. As a cultural heritage organization, we serve to preserve, promote, and celebrate that which makes us unique, but also the characteristics, qualities, and values that unite us as people. Here at the Italian Cultural Center, we are committed to embracing diversity, practicing equity, and ensuring accessibility, and inclusion for all members of our vibrant community. In addition to preserving the language, culture, and traditions of our Italian heritage, we also wish to celebrate and instill the values of our immigrant ancestors. So many of us grew up with the memories and the legacy of the horrors of this world, but rather than inheriting a bitterness or resentment- we were taught compassion, empathy, resolve, and determination to never let anyone stand alone in their hour of need. Those values compel us to ensure that we as an organization value all voices and perspectives. It leads us to build a more inclusive and welcoming community where all people are appreciated for their unique perspectives and backgrounds. Often, as new arrivals in this country faced discrimination, hardship, and adversity, it was other immigrants, who despite their own disadvantages, reached out a helping hand. That immigrant legacy guides our path as an organization to a future of unity, empathy, and kindness. Today we are striving to alleviate any obstacles that prevent all people, immaterial of their race or ethnicity, from participating, prospering, and reaching their full potential.
