Greater Middle East Center

IRCO's Greater Middle East Center (GMEC) is a new IRCO cultural center under development, to support communities from the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia to thrive in Oregon. We are working toward creating a safe, collaborative, and inclusive physical space to house our services, cultural activities, and advocacy efforts. We are currently connecting communities to available resources and providing culturally specific services such as Arabic language classes for children and youth.
