NNIC Educational Outreach

As our globe becomes more closely connected, it is imperative for Americans to gain a better understanding of global issues and other cultures. Fostering this understanding is the mission of the International Center. We provide a wide array of community outreach programs for both children and adults that connect, educate and inspire people to take an interest in the world around them. For more information on our programs, follow the links below, or contact us through this page.
