OUR CORE VALUES
 The principles of Kwanzaa hold special value for many African Americans and reach across cultural boundaries as well. The values emphasized during the week-long celebration are incorporated in each of our programs to reinforce family, community and culture through practices and affirmations related to the Nguzo Saba, The Seven Principles. The Seven Principles observed during Kwanzaa are Umoja (unity), Kujichagulia (self determination), Ujima (collective work and responsibility), Ujamaa (cooperative economics), Nia (purpose), Kuumba (creativity), and Imani (faith). We believe that each principle can enhance relationships between individuals and families, which can ultimately lead to better communities.
