Mission
To educate Americans about Arab countries, the Middle East, and
the Islamic world through leadership development, people-to-people
programs, lectures, publications, and grassroots outreach.
Vision
A relationship between the United States and its Arab friends
that rests on a solid, enduring foundation � characterized by
strengthened and expanded strategic, economic, political,
commercial, and defense ties; by a reciprocity of respect for each
others� culture and heritage; by increasing partnership; and by
an overall mutuality of benefit.
Organizational Profile
Founded in 1983, the National Council on U.S.-Arab Relations is
an American non-profit, non-governmental, educational organization
dedicated to improving American knowledge and understanding of the
Arab world.
From its offices in Washington, DC, the National Council works
with other groups to provide resources and maximize effectiveness.
To this end, the National Council convenes meetings of the heads
of a dozen U.S.-Arab organizations devoted to discussing
strategies for sharing information and resources.
The National Council is not a membership organization. Its
supporters are primarily individuals and institutions in the
United States and the Arab world who have hosted or participated
in one of the National Council's programs. Their involvement with
the National Council often begins with a single event or activity
and then, based on that experience, grows into a broader and
lasting relationship based on mutual interests and concerns. By
following up with participants, facilitators, hosts, sponsors,
friends and supporters and constantly reaching out to others the
National Council steadily increases the number of people who are
informed and involved in the national dialogue on U.S. relations
with the Arab world.
The National Council has been granted public charity status in
accordance with Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue
Code. All contributions are tax-deductible to the fullest extent
allowed by U.S. law.
