WELCOME
The African
Assistance Program (AAP) is a 21st Century 501(c)(3)
nonprofit organization serving African immigrant and refugee
families resettled in the USA. It was established in 2000 to
promote human rights, economic justice, democratic empowerment
and cross-cultural understanding in the context of
globalization.
Its immediate
goal is to help African immigrants, refugees and those granted
asylum to overcome cultural and systemic barriers to attaining
economic security and personal self-efficacy.
AAP promotes
diversity, works for systemic changes to reduce or eliminate
racism, and stirs civic participation to generate the hope,
courage; confidence and understanding that Africans need to
fulfill their economic potential as new Americans.
