Advocacy

Inspire, empower, and motivate Turks and Turkish-Americans in Michigan to participate in advocacy and service projects to the benefit of our ethnic community, and the State of Michigan.

Partnerships

Supplement the relatively small Turkish population in Michigan with multi-ethnic and multi-cultural partnerships with communities — taking advantage of unique ethnic demographics in Michigan.

Engagement

Contact and inform state and national elected officials on Turkish-Americans, the Republic of Turkiye, and issues relevant to building strong Turkish-American relations.

Education

Educate Michigan citizens of all backgrounds on the peoples and cultures of Türkiye with exceptional presentations fine-tuned for specific audiences, including contacting and informing local media.
