The Franco-American Women's Institute is an organization of
women who gather together as a force for the specific purpose
of promoting Franco-American, ethnic women's voices. The Franco-American
Women's Institute is also an archival place or a recording place.
The women come together in many forms of presentation, body,
soul and creative spirit, as Franco-American women--Québécois,
Acadian, Métis, Mixed Blood, French Canadian, 'Cajun,
Creole and Huguenot--in a way which encourages them to be voiced
while collecting a record of their and their maman's existence.
Daughters, mamans, and mémères.
Franco-Americans
are the ancestors of an important and large genealogical group
located on the North American continent. These women live
in pockets of communities throughout the Northeast and elsewhere.
Here in Maine several communities have been chez-nous for
Franco-Americans for more than the past 150 years.

The central mission of the Franco-American is to redress a century of neglect and ignorance by restoring to Franco-Americans their history, their language, and access to full and healthy self-realization. This mission is carried out in the following goals:
1) To provide vehicles for the expression of an authentic voice for Franco-Americans,
2) To be an advocate for the Franco-American Fact at the University of Maine, in the State of Maine and in the region,
3) To stimulate the development of academic and non-academic program offerings at the University of Maine and in the State relevant to the history and life experience of Franco-Americans,
4) To assist and support Franco-Americans in the actualization of their language and culture, in the advancement of their careers, in their personal growth and in their creative contribution to society,
5) To assist and provide support in the creation and implementation of a concept of pluralism that validates and reflects the Multicultural Fact in Maine and elsewhere in North America, and
6) To assist in the generation and dissemination of knowledge about a major Maine resource — the rich cultural and language diversity of its people.
Each year, the Center sponsors a variety of programs—conferences, colloquia, visiting speakers, and panel discussions—designed to validate the North American Franco Fact, to expand and deepen our understanding and appreciation of the Franco-American legacy as a tool for self-realization, and to promote a climate of multicultural awareness and respect on campus and in the region.

ISSA is an organization that links Muslim social service providers in the United States and Canada. ISSA is a unique organization since it is not a social service provider, but rather is an organization that serves as a network for addressing the social service concerns Muslims have. ISSA aims to provide support to social service providers through education, training and services. It is, therefore, an organization that helps Muslims to set up and successfully provide social services within their own communities, rather than running these services for communities. This approach helps to empower local Muslims in providing help to their communities, and decreases dependency on larger associations. ISSA acts as a national link and resource between these smaller community-based organizations.
ISSA in Canada carries on its activities in Canada and ISSA in the U.S.A carries on its activities in the U.S.A. The two organizations cooperate with each other in planning the annual conferences and other educational projects.
