To provide access to quality programs and exhibits in the visual, performing and cultural arts and to assist Italian social services agency, Patronato Acli (PA), provide social services to senior citizens of low and moderate income residing in Jersey City and Hudson County. The arts programs consist of high quality art exhibits, music concerts, book readings and other cultural events. In the area of Social services, IECC provides consultant services to PA personnel. These services include securing Social Security pensions from the Italian Government, securing pensions under special agreement between the USA and Italy, providing immigration guidance relating to Alien Registration cards, application and guidance for US naturalization, guidance to dual citizenship, providing paralegal services and guidance on legal matters, and providing medical guidance, including referrals to physicians and making appointments. Since one of the primary goals of the IECC is to make the arts more readily available to the residents of the community and during the past year a series of virtual art exhibits, musical performances and/or literary and cultural events were provided to the public at very little or no cost. A key objective of the program is to utilize the great abundance of talent located within the City of Jersey City and Hudson County, NJ. The program will continue to showcase artists, musicians and authors who reside within the local community. 0 1624 Consultant services to Patronato Acli personnel providing social services to senior citizens needing assistance in dealing with the Italian government becomes more demanding each year. Due to Patronato Acli's extensive and constant networking and liaison activities, there is an increased demand for social services assistance. It is expected that this trend will continue for demographic, social and economic reasons. The average age of the immigrant population is increasing as is the level of technological expertise required to obtain basic public services. It is anticipated that the organization will provide increased assistance and services to senior citizens during the current year. 0 0 1624 Dr Louis Iozzi President 5 0 0 0 Madeleine Giansanti Vice President 2 0 0 0 Lisa Collodoro Executive Director 15 23500 0 0 Daniel Apruzzese Treasurer 2 0 0 0 Dolores Stapinski Secretary 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NJ Daniel Apruzzese 16 Edgemont Ave Summit NJ 07901 9082731195 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 19281 23818 30380 27808 38746 140033 19281 23818 30380 27808 38746 140033 140033 140033 1 1 X Carnevale 20575 1060 19515 0 0 0 7345 300 1023 0 0 20575 1060 19515 0 0 0 7345 300 1023 8668 10847 Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Description;Amount^Depreciation;7861|Telephone and Internet;1716|Office Supplies and Expense;2751|Website and Technology;1119|Charitable Contributions;400^Total;13847^ Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 24 Description;EOY Amount^Furniture and Fixtures;311^Total;311^
