Inclusively Celebrating Diversity

OUR MISSION

To be a multicultural, diverse, and inclusive community resource center that provides cultural and educational programming, community support, community outreach, and social initiatives to racialized community members of all ages, especially the black community. CMC programs promote community well-being and provide opportunities for volunteering, and skill development.
 
To create an interactive environment that broadens our understanding and appreciation of multiculturalism, diversity, and social justice; build relationships to establish a broader community network within our province, that is committed to improving the recognition and acceptance of the dignity and worth of every individual, provide a warm, welcoming, hopeful, supportive, and vibrant environment for all underrepresented vulnerable members of our community, that will engage and enhance their social, physical, mental, intellectual, interpersonal, rehabilitative, developmental and leadership skills.
 To be a Community Centre that serves as a hub for various ethnocultural community-based organizations, non-profits, and multicultural and social-action entities in Alberta.
 

We are greater than, and greater for, the sum of us
