Oakland Ethiopian Community and Cultural Center

Oakland Ethiopian Community and Cultural Center ECCC is a non-profit organization that supports the 20,000 members of the Bay Area (CA) community.

Please visit our website for further details http://ethiopianccc.org/ The Ethiopian Community and Cultural Center (ECCC) of the Bay Area was established in 2001 as a nonprofit, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) community based organization to empower Ethiopians and Ethiopian-Americans through education, advocacy, services and development of community based resources. We coordinate educational programs and soci

al services that empower and support Ethiopian immigrants/refugees to become self-sufficient. Our programs and services strengthen their language, social, and cultural competency in their new environment. This is primarily accomplished through volunteers contributing their time and energy to making the transition into the Bay Area successful. ECCC assesses community needs and addresses the obstacles to successful integration through creating sustainable programs, while also advocating for refugees in order to make the Bay Area a more aware and friendly place. Ethiopian Community and Cultural Center conducts educational and social service programs that help new immigrants take up residence and become established in the Bay Area. We help these individuals to assimilate into the new culture and become able participants, productive and contributing members of society. The Ethiopian Community outreach program also gets involved in promoting Ethiopia and Ethiopian history and culture to communities around the Bay Area, so that new comers would not face difficulties while going through the resettlement and cultural adjustment process.

Oakland Ethiopian Community and Cultural Center, mourns the innocent Ethiopian and Eritrean lives lost by the senseless killings in Libya. Currently there are several concerned individuals and other organizations planning events to recognize the lost lives.
Please stay tuned regarding ECCC's plans to address the lost lives. We are currently trying to contact all of the religious leaders in the Bay Area at Large (Orthodox, Catholic, Pentecostal, Presbyterian, Non-Denominational, Christians; Islam; Jewish; we welcome all religions). We are also alerting all of the local, county and state officials to coordinate a day of remembrance. Date and Time TBD.
“We express our condolences to the families of the victims and our support to the Ethiopian government and people as they grieve for their fellow citizens; the fact that these terrorist killed these men solely because of their faith lays bare the terrorists’ vicious, senseless brutality.”
