Asian Center Celebrates Mission, Upcoming Event
For over three decades, the Asian Community & Cultural Center has welcomed immigrants and refugees arriving in Lincoln. They support and empower all immigrants and refugees, and celebrate and share the rich cultural diversity in our community.
In 2023, they served over 2,000 clients through English classes, youth mentoring, health advocacy, mental health support, and more. Their multicultural advocates provide culturally specific outreach and services across various Asian cultures, as well as Sudanese, Afghan, Ukrainian, Yezidi, and other central Asian/Middle Eastern communities in Lincoln. The Asian Center’s team helps newcomers integrate and acclimate, share their stories and culture, cultivate success, and find belonging. Events like the upcoming Asian American Pacific Islander festival invites the whole community to join in celebrating these cultures.
