In collaboration with our partner and support organizations, ADFC is proud to announce the establishment of our first community based African information and resource centre, called the Richmond African Community Centre (RACC), in the city of Richmond, BC. The purpose of RACC is to kick start our ROYSCCE (Referral, Open Forum and Discussion, Youth Empowerment, Social network and support, Cultural Development, and Civic Engagement) program.  ROYSCCE is an innovative initiative by ADFC to deal with the masked and expressed needs of the growing continental African community in Canada. The goal of RACC is to facilitate the creation of a healthy, strong, resilient and viable African community in the city of Richmond through safe integration, productive engagement, dialogue, healthy partnerships, youth empowerment, voice, and cultural development.  

ADFC invites all Africans living in or around Richmond to participate in our short online survey to make the planning of our proposed community centre effective and inclusive. The Executive Director, Board of Directors and planning team of RACC value your inputs and thank you in advance for sharing them with us. 

As a T.E.A.M, we believe in the power of collective action and shared purpose.
