Albanian American Cultural Alliance (AACA) at DePaul University

The Albanian American Cultural Alliance (AACA) at DePaul University is a student organization based at DePaul in Chicago. It is listed in DePaul's DeHUB student-organization system and describes its purpose as educating DePaul and the surrounding communities about the history, politics, language, and culture of Albania.

AACA operates on DePaul's Chicago campus, but membership is not limited to DePaul students. The group states plainly on its Instagram presence that you do not have to be a DePaul student to join, which opens participation to Albanian-Americans and others across the Chicago area who want a campus-connected cultural community.

Its work centers on cultural education and awareness — programming and outreach tied to Albanian history, language, and identity for a campus audience. The alliance has also collaborated with Albanian Studies at DePaul, which has publicly recognized the AACA team's contributions to Albanian academic and cultural work on campus.

Within the broader Albanian-American organizational landscape, AACA at DePaul is recognized in the National Albanian Registry's directory of U.S. Albanian organizations. It functions as a DePaul student group rather than an independent nonprofit, and maintains a public presence through DeHUB, its Google Site, Facebook, and Instagram (@aaca.depaul).
