Our Programs
The Atatürk School for Children
The ATADC Atatürk School has been teaching the Turkish language and culture to children since 1980.
The goal of the school is to provide Turkish language and culture classes for Turkish-American children so that they may retain important aspects of Turkish culture while growing up in the United States. Children learn in a fun, yet structured, environment.
Young Cultural Ambassadors Program
Open to high school students from across the United States, the program is run in a hybrid format and aims to empower youth leaders through civic engagement, volunteerism, and cultural diplomacy. Participants attend lectures by experts in a variety of fields including entrepreneurship, politics, academics, diplomacy, art as well as others. Participants also complete both individual and team projects.
