About Iranian-American Cultural Association of Missouri

The Iranian-American Cultural Association of Missouri (IACA-MO) is a non-profit organization consisting of Iranian-Americans and other concerned Missourians who strive to promote human rights and tolerance, and engage in educational activities to increase awareness among policymakers and the public.

The Association organizes events, takes part in civic/political/cultural gatherings, engages governmental and non-governmental organizations, works closely with human rights organizations, religious leaders, and community organizers to promote and preserve cultural wealth of the Iranian Diaspora community, while helping to facilitate democracy in Iran.

IACA-MO is active in the media, as its members have published many commentaries, conducted interviews, and have appeared on various shows.

IACA-MO strives to act as a bridge between the heritage and culture of Iran and modern day America. We strive to educate the public, composed of both Americans and second generation Iranians, about Iranian culture, politics, and day-to-day life. We cherish the rich history and culture of Iran, focusing on the human rights situation and democracy movement there, while doing our utmost to contribute to the development and progress in the United States.
