Americana Community Center
The Americana Community Center is a non-profit organization, which provides a spectrum of services for the many diverse residents of Metro Louisville. These services enable people to discover and utilize resources to build strong families, create a safe, supportive community, and realize their individual potential.
The Center provides an array of social services and referrals explicitly designed to respond to the specific and changing needs of our clients. The programs and services are constantly re-evaluated to determine the efficiency and appropriateness.
Great ethnic and economic diversity provides a wealth of challenges and opportunities. To meet these challenges and opportunities, the Americana Community Center was established as a resource for area families.
