Introduction

As the best community resource for people with international needs, the International Center of Indianapolis (ICI) helps the greater Indianapolis community to welcome and connect people of all cultures. Programs and services reflect our values: to understand, promote and celebrate cultural diversity, to demonstrate uncompromising readiness to assist people facing cultural challenges, to create a community that embraces and values people from diverse cultural backgrounds and improve our community by enabling individuals we serve to contribute proactively and productively.

Now in its fourth decade of service, ICI serves greater Indianapolis through programs that

  • help enhance local understanding of diverse cultures
  • facilitate communication
  • provide opportunities for citizen diplomacy and international exchange

ICI contributes to our region’s global environment through programs and services that help make central Indiana a welcoming place for newcomers from around the world. We have been greater Indianapolis’ Window to the World, facilitating communication across cultures and engaging Indiana citizens of all ages in programs that foster understanding and dialogue.
