We aim to provide the true Islamic perspective through authentic literature as well as by providing opportunities to learn directly from the Muslims instead of media, on concepts mostly misunderstood in the community including the role and status of Women in Islam.
Through the outreach department, ICNA sisters plan activities to remove the misconceptions about Islam. We invite people of other faiths to our events, such as
"Hijab Day", “Get To Know Your Muslim Neighbors,” “Library Open Houses, and many Media Campaigns. We also participate in our community events where we display literature and answer queries about Islam.
