About ACCESS

For over five decades, ACCESS (Arab Community Center for Economic and Social Services) has been at the forefront of community service. Established in 1971 by passionate volunteers, ACCESS originated in a small storefront in Dearborn's south end, aiming to support Arab immigrants in their transition to life in the United States. Today, ACCESS stands tall as the largest Arab American community nonprofit in the United States. Our reach extends across 10 locations, boasting over 120 programs that serve the diverse metro Detroit population. We're not just an organization; we're a beacon of social, economic, health, and educational services. While we honor our Arab American heritage, ACCESS has evolved into a nonprofit model of excellence, dedicated to community-building and focused on serving those in need. We're proud to contribute to the community through national institutions like the Arab American National Museum (AANM), the National Network for Arab American Communities (NNAAC), the Center for Arab American Philanthropy (CAAP), and the Center for Arab Narratives (CAN), making a positive impact on the lives of all Americans. At ACCESS, our ability to assist, improve, and empower stems from the unwavering support of our community. We invite you to join us in making a difference. As part of our team, you'll not only change lives today but also contribute to building a lasting legacy for tomorrow.
