Council for the Advancement of African Canadians in Alberta (Africa Centre)

The Council for Advancement of African Canadians in Alberta (CAAC), operating as Africa Centre, was incorporated in 2006.  We are the largest pan African non-profit organization in Western Canada, serving as a community hub that provides programs and services from a place of cultural awareness and competency to the families in our diverse community.  We acknowledge the diversity of our cultural background as a source of strength that brings capacity and competencies to shape a thriving community in Alberta.  We have a strong African Indigenous cultural foundation incorporated across our programs and services.  We strive to create opportunities for full access and participation of all Albertans in all aspects of society including economic, social, cultural and educational endeavours and contribute to the holistic development and wellness of individuals, family, and community.
