About AFRICAN IMMIGRANTS COMMUNITY SERVICES

African Immigrants Community Services (AICS) is a Minneapolis-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit incorporated in 2007 that focuses on culturally grounded resettlement and integration services for African immigrants, refugees, and asylees in the Twin Cities. The organization delivers case-managed social services including employment readiness and placement, housing navigation, immigration/naturalization assistance, ESL and language-access supports, youth employment, and public-health outreach.

AICS operates as a community-facing service provider and partner to city, state, and health agencies; in recent years it has delivered youth employment programming, participated in public-health vaccination/testing efforts, run tobacco-prevention peer-education for East African populations, and administered arts and cultural programming. The organization maintains an online presence and is listed on national nonprofit information platforms and local government provider rosters, indicating active operations and donor-facing programs.
