About Us

We encompass the largest network of international organizations embracing more than 120 cultural, ethnic, and nationality groups in Northeast Ohio.

We are an essential conduit for bringing together diverse communities for education, appreciation, and preservation of their arts and cultural heritage.

 History

In 2004 a Partnership of Plain Dealer Charities, Inc. and the International Community Council produced a book titled “Greater Cleveland MOSAIC” documenting the extensive network of international communities in Northeast Ohio. We support this network and integrate its leaders and members into all activities. We have been building relationships within this community for more than two decades to achieve our mission and secure the position of this region as “international-friendly.”
