Recent events throughout our nation and here in our own community have further fostered our commitment to a vision of an Indiana that embraces a global economy, values all cultures, and is a vibrant place to live and work. 

The International Center supports the rightful protest for justice and peace. And, like our downtown neighbors, we do not support any form of violence that leads to property destruction and physical injuries.

We are heartened by the expression of  sympathy and moral support for peaceful protest from around the world, and  we pray that civil discourse will return our community to a place that indeed values all cultures and is a safe and vibrant place to live, work, raise a family, and operate a business.
