What we care for
Empowerment and Realizing Potentials
We are deeply committed to empowering newcomers and residents to reach their full potential, create meaningful impact, and find a sense of fulfillment. Removing barriers and providing access to resources through a variety of initiatives is a core part of our mission.
Building Community
We believe that a strong, cohesive community can serve as the support network we miss after leaving our country of origin. We design initiatives to strengthen community bonds, foster meaningful relationships, and support third-party activities that contribute to building a unified and resilient community.
Awareness and Advocacy
In a world where governments and officials dominate the news, it is easy to overlook the true identity and spirit of a nation’s people. We are committed to showcasing the richness and diversity of Iranian culture, fostering greater awareness and understanding within Canadian society. Building cultural bridges is a vital part of our association’s mission.
