Persian American Cultural society is the bridge between two cultures
Overview
Our goal is to create a strong network, rich of ideas and people with the goal (hope) of helping to support and promote our culture and community. This organization is dedicated and committed to create resources and meet the needs of the growing Persian American community in the Tri-State area.
To be part of PACS, you can sign up with your e-mail address for updates, newsletters, and have free access to our database of businesses and professionals in the community. However, we do need the support of you in our community to help our programs with both your time and energy as well as for those who are able to do so, with financial support as an active member of PACS.
