Notre Dame Education Center

Notre Dame Education Center's mission is to provide a community-based, comprehensive learning and literacy program for adults through the provision of a variety of education programs underscored by the values of respect, understanding and quality services.

The Notre Dame Education Center is "A Place of Hope". People from the diverse neighborhoods and cultures of the city come here to initiate or to continue their education. As part of their learning, they will participate in the development of the Center as a place where family values are strengthened, community building fostered and diversity respected and celebrated.

In setting the direction of the Center, participants will use a form of critical social analysis as their tool for understanding the complexities of the world and responding to them. Therefore, the programs offered and the style of learning will provide for reflection on the individual and collective experience of the students and teachers.
