MEETING OF APRIL, 2005

Karen Popowski and Malgorzata Cieslik spoke about the Polish American Association (PAA) at the April Meeting. The mission of the PAA, a human services agency, is to serve the diverse needs of the Polish community in the Chicago metro area by providing resources for changing lives, with emphasis on assisting immigrants.

Through its 31 bilingual and bicultural programs and services of education, employment, social, immigration, information and advocacy, the PAA provides clients with the resources for changing their lives and enhancing their ability to become contributing members of the community.

The Polish American Association was founded by members of the Chicago Society as the Polish Welfare Association.

Robert Groszek and Larry Miller were inducted as new members that evening. A buffet dinner was served by Sawa's Old Warsaw Restaurant.
