Our Mission

The mission of the Hanna Community Center is to enhance the well-being and quality of life for under-resourced and underserved community members. We are dedicated to celebrating the rich traditions of Greater Lafayette while preserving the culture, heritage, and history of African Americans and minority groups in Tippecanoe County. By fostering inclusive spaces for connection and dialogue, we strengthen community ties, amplify voices, and promote social equity.
